  https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hyperglycemia/symptoms-causes/syc-20373631

  High blood sugar, also called hyperglycemia, affects people who have diabetes. […] Hyperglycemia usually doesn’t cause symptoms until blood sugar (glucose) levels are high above 180 to 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL), or 10 to 11.1 millimoles per liter (mmol/L). […] Symptoms of hyperglycemia develop slowly over several days or weeks. The longer blood sugar levels stay high, the more serious symptoms may become. But some people who’ve had type 2 diabetes for a long time may not show any symptoms despite high blood sugar levels. […] Recognizing early symptoms of hyperglycemia can help identify and treat it right away. Watch for: Frequent urination, Increased thirst, Blurred vision, Feeling weak or unusually tired. […] If hyperglycemia isn’t treated, it can cause toxic acids, called ketones, to build up in the blood and urine. This condition is called ketoacidosis. Symptoms include: Fruity-smelling breath, Dry mouth, Abdominal pain, Nausea and vomiting, Shortness of breath, Confusion, Loss of consciousness.
