He is diabetic. Needs treatment immediately. Get his HBA1C, renal profile, thyroid profile, Fundoscopy by ophthalmologist. Start on lifestyle modification, diet with out sugar, consult me on phone for further treatment.

It is an emergency. As we don’t know how long the sugars have been so high. Get an Hba1c. Will likely need treatment with insulin for a short time or medication long term. But insulin will act more quickly.
