If your numbers are in the 400's & 500's you need to talk to your endocrinologist immediately. Maybe you need more insulin? Or maybe it is something else. Do you have ketone strips? You should be taking your ketones when your sugars go above 240 for any period of time. You can get really sick quickly with numbers that high, as I'm sure you know already. Exercise can lower blood sugars, but if you have ketones and you exercise your sugars will go up, so be very careful.

No matter what it is, you need to see your doctor asap. Your type 1 diabetes needs to be managed by someone who knows what their doing.
