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
My docs tell me to go to the hospital if mine goes above 300, 371 is really high, and you are at risk for a diabetic coma
I'm on medication for diabetes and last week at the doctor's office, my blood sugar was over 400. Do I need to be on insulin?
Death can occur
My doctor told me if my blood sugar gets anywhere near 400, go to the hospital.
Drink water and exercise to try to burn up some of the sugar. Also please notify your doctor if your blood sugar is running over 200. You need to discuss why your blood sugar is so high, and find a treatment plan that works for you. Please go to the ER or urgent care if your blood sugar is running over 400.
how long will it take for blood sugar level to drop
400 grams of sugar is 1 3/4 cups of sugar.
seeing you should have around 400 000 then yes, you should be concerned
Can a sugar lump help my husband who has type 2 diabetes and had too much sugar intake to-day, he has gone to bed very tired,wants to sleep. The above has been left for reference. The answer is below. No! Don't give him more sugar. His blood glucose is too high now. Test his blood glucose. If you have no tester, take him to ER. If you have a tester, and his glucose tests at 200 or above, call his doctor. If 400 or above, take him to ER. if 600 or above call an ambulance. He needs insulin, and no offense, but if you are trying to give him more sugar, you should not be dosing him. Ask his doctor or call the hospital ER now.
if your sugar level is 400 how high is high
There is approximately 1 3/4 cups of sugar in 400 grams. There is 100 grams in ever 1/2 of sugar.
say you have diabetes, and you check your blood sugar, and the meter said that your number was 400, you would have to exercise to make your blood sugar low again, my point is that you know how you exercise to lose weight? Well when you have a high blood sugar that means you ate too much sugar, and exercising makes it low again. Get my point? If nobody does, than somebody please improve my long answer. (by the way, I have diabetes)
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.
