Hi PD Oz, Hyperglycaemic Hyperosmolar Non-ketotic Syndrome (HHNS), which is what type 2 diabetics develop much more frequently than is the case with Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) is also a life-threatening situation. Both would need hospital admission for emergency medical care, and both could actually kill the sufferer if not taken care of ... and pretty urgently.
Hi Suggs I had the same problem caused by an infection in my gums, antibiotics sorted it out, Good luck. Bob
Thank you all for replying. My reading first thing in the morning. -fasting - is now 11. So coming down and later in the day comes down to 8 so I'm pleased with progress.
