Its on its way down now *Phew*. My meter stops reading when its higher than 600, So I took 7 units to get it down just to where I can read it and after a bit I take more according my numbers.
 
Yeah, I rarely drink anything but water. Its funny, because before my diagnosis I was a big soda drinker...now the stuff makes me gag. And with how thristy I am, theres no problem drinking LOTS of water. I hate the dry mouth, its like tourture...I could drink an ocean of water but still be thirsty until my sugars come down.
 
 
Oh geese, I forgot to make my font bigger. Sorry everyone!  I'll copy and past it below.
 
 
...Your meter just says HI? Do you give it time to get it down, or do you go straight to the ER?
 
Mine just read "HI" and I took 7 units of insulin, and im just waiting to see if that helps. I have a nasty chest infection, so Im sure thats what causing this.
