You can probably live several days with basically no kidney function, but you will die eventually from all the waste build up. The sugar level of 20, not very long. a blood sugar under 50 is a medical emergency and requires intervention.

Why would a person with untreated diabetes eventually need a kidney transplant?

Untreated diabetes can lead to chronic high blood sugar levels, which damage blood vessels and nerves over time. This can result in diabetic nephropathy, a condition where the kidneys become progressively less effective at filtering waste from the blood. As kidney function declines, waste accumulates, potentially leading to kidney failure. In such cases, a kidney transplant may become necessary to restore proper kidney function and overall health.
