Hi Gail, that sounds scary. It could be a hypo and your liver released sugar making you high or it could just be high - I sometimes get those symptoms when I am high unfortunately. Have you done more exercise that normal or had different moods this morning? More exercise or feeling more positive might indicate that a hypo is more likely. If you are less happy it could make you high - or that's how it is for me! Phone your DSN or doctor to get advice on how to bring it down because it is bank holiday weekend and you should get advice in case things are bad over the weekend. I hope you are feeling better soon xx
 
That's a shame after all your good numbers recently Gail. I'm not sure what to suggest other than keeping well hydrated and test maybe every hour, and if it stays high then probably worth getting in touch with your GP. It's probably not safe to exercise at those levels so that option is out. Hopefully, whatever caused the HI will work itself out of your system before too long - please keep us updated.

Hope you get over it quickly Gail 🙂 Glad to see that your numbers have come down - 20s not great, but better than HI!
