[QUOTE="JMK1954, post: 1989674, member: 352098"] For DKA to be diagnosed you need high ketones as well as high glucose levels. If you are experiencing high glucose levels, but not high ketones, you may still need a saline drip to be rehydrated and your electrolyte levels to be checked. If you have high ketone levels as well, this indicates DKA and is life- threatening. Please don't take risks with your life and get help swiftly. [/QUOTE]
