Detailed Answer:
Welcome back!

There is no emergency for the moment.
You should see a physician during the next coming days to check HbA1c ( the mean glucose level of the last three months) and start treatment depending on its result.

High blood pressure should be treated too.

Try to avoid carbohydrates and salt during these days.
Keep monitoring the blood sugar and blood pressure, if there is a tendency to increase and the symptoms get worse, you should go to ER for prompt management and control.

Hope the information will help. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Best wishes,
Dr.Mirjeta
