Hyperglycemia
Hyperglycemia [4] is high blood sugar. It occurs when you eat more carbohydrates or sugar than your body can handle. Symptoms of hyperglycemia include:
- Frequent urination
- Thirst
- Excess sugar in your urine
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, you can check your urine for ketones with an at-home urine test kit. If a urine test shows ketones, there are certain precautions to take to manage the situation. It is important that you discuss with your doctor the ways to lower your sugar levels.
