What Causes High Blood Sugar And Excessive Sweating?
Hello, my husband has not been feeling well for a few days. We were on a trip in high altitude (considered Altitude Sickness). His blood sugars are now at 240 and he is sweating pretty badly. Is this combination something to worry about? other symptoms are achiness and fatigue.

Hello,
The sugar levels of your husband are very high and he needs to be seen with a doctor, especially because he is feeling fatigued and is sweating a lot.
Altitude sickness may cause fatigue but should not cause high sugar levels.
I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
