What Causes Elevated Blood Sugar Levels?

I have been having high sugar the past week. I reached 307 at one point. I have been monitoring it carefully and I now average 149 before eating and 180 after. Even though I have gotten my sugar down, I am having light headedness, and nausea, along with burping and a little chest heaviness. Can you tell me what is wrong with me? Or at least give me an idea.

Hello,

It seems you are having a very rapid fluctuation of sugar, which is causing the above symptoms. So I would have suggested you go and get one ECG along with the continuous sugar monitoring and even your dose need to be further adjusted so that with the better-adjusted dose, you will be able to maintain your sugar in a better way.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Medhavi Agarwal
