High Sugar Levels of 300 plus
My Grandfather 77 years old got a brain stroke 15 days back. He was admitted in a reputed hospital in Hyderabad.
5 days back, He was discharged.
He's unable to talk, drowsy all the time and could partially move his limbs. Also, he has a feeding pipe through which food intake is being done.
Feeding is being done every 2 hours which includes dal rice and pentasure DM.
Since he's been discharged, we are constantly monitoring him at home, his vitals and physiotherapy too.
But his sugar levels are quite high. More than 300.
Are these sugar levels alarming ?
Please advice.
I've attached the discharge report and sugar level document for your reference.
Thanks in advance.
