Is a blood sugar of 600 bad?

I have type 2 diabetes, I don't treat myself like i should. The other day i felt a little strange so I checked my sugar and it was 600. Is that bad and what could be going on with my body?

Update:

No this is no joke, I was shocked when I saw the number come up.

Update 2:

This happened friday the 1st. And my blood sugars have been running 300+

    Test again, right now. Clean hands. Check that the meter is working and the strips aren't expired. If you are anywhere near that high right now, go to the emergency room. This is a potentially deadly blood sugar level.

    You need to call and get in to see the doctor ASAP. A blood glucose level of 600 is very dangerous and had you written at that time, the hospital would have been my immediate suggestion. You are treading in dangerous territory and need to see an endocrinologist right away. Tell the receptionist what you said here, so they won't put you off. You need to be on insulin.

    I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.

    I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.

    I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

    i didn't know i was diabetic till i passed out at my doctor's office.

    when he got a reading of 600, he called the paramedics - he considered that far too serious to be treated in a doctor's office. So yes, it is bad, bad enough for a doctor to send you to the hospital.

    What is going on with your body? i am guessing that it is already affecting your vision, but that does not have to be permanent. has if effected your kidneys, liver, etc?

    i have no idea. that requires tests.

    I hope to God you're trolling, because anyone that can say "I have type 2 diabetes" should know that a blood sugar of 600 is not only bad, it can be deadly.

    That is very high. When my blood sugar was 405 they called me in to the office and started me on insulin. You need to see your doctor now.

    take yourself to the doctors office and ask him/her what that glucose level can lead to!! heart disease, liver disease, kidney disease, amputated feet and hands, blindness just to name a few of the consequences of very high glucose levels.

    So you really don't want to live the good life!! Continue the way you are going and any or all of the above can be yours very easily.
