Body weakness
Since 1 week my father is feeling very weak cause he was diagnosed with a high blood sugar level(350) and is having body ache and even can't talk properly I consulted the docter he increased the dosage of insulin from 12 to 15 but still there's no progress what to do? He's diabetic since 20 years should we go for glucose?
If u have glucometer can monitor sugars regularly since the dose of insulin has been changed. Glucose is given in case of low sugars only ie if sugars less than 70 can call it low sugar and it will b associated with sweating and hunger. So monitor sugars daily 3 times at-least till it gets under control and keep in touch with ur doctor.
