Helping a Spouse
My husband has Type 2 diabetes. He doesn't take care of himself. I made him check his blood sugar and the monitor said "HI". After referring to the manual, I discovered that the monitor doesn't read higher than 500. Can you tell me how high blood sugar levels are when they become severe or dangerous?
