Diabetes, Type 2 - My wife is a diebetic,type 2.and out of control.her numbers are sometimes higher than what the meter can read,for us is 30 or 32.and I am giving her,sometimes 60 units of Humalog fast acting,and that scares me,either way,but she refuses to go in.
How high is too high?

Wow that is alot of insulin. I think she needs to go to the doctor that is just out of hand like crazy uncontrollable. I have an aunt that took that many units and she ended up on an insulin pump this might be best for your wife since she takes so many units. Please convince her to go see the doctor when my aunt was doing this many units and her readings had dropped down to 34 she was not all there and tried to fight the ambulance guys when they tried to give her insulin to help her cause it dropped so low she was incoherent. This is definantly not good she needs help immediatley.

DO YOU WANT TO DIE?
No one like to go to a Doctor, if it be fear or do feel like it's no big deal that will fix its self.
The truth is, is only a fool would stant in the middle of a road a take the cance you won't get run over.
A lot of people put things off, but don't play chicken with DEATH.
