You would be dead... but if somehow you're not you need Insulin, and a lot of it.

Whoever wrote this knows nothing about blood sugar levels. Although it is dangerous you wouldn't simply die when your sugar goes over 400. What you should do is go to the er so they can get your levels down asap

What happens when blood sugar stays in the 300 to high 400?

Long term elevated blood sugar will lead to organ damage and/or organ failure. The organs that are usually damaged first are the eyes and kidneys. The eye because eye pressure is effected (osmosis) and the kidneys because they filter the blood. The kidneys become overworked trying to remove the excessive glucose from the blood.
