Hi As suggested earlier the cause has to be determined to treat. Acute episodes are treated with infusion of calculated dosage of insulin. you need to consult a doctor for the diagnosis and treatment.

Radiologist Dr. Radha Narayanan's  Response
Hi Pandurang!
this is called Hyperglycemia i;e high blood sugar levels.patient with first-time hyperglycemia should be diagnosed immediately with diabetes if that patient is concomitantly ill with something else. Further testing, such as a fasting plasma glucose, random plasma glucose, or two-hour postprandial plasma glucose level, must be performed.Also a test called Glycosylated hemoglobin must be done.
Treatment of hyperglycemia requires elimination of the underlying cause, e.g., treatment of diabetes when diabetes is the cause. Acute hyperglycemia can be treated by direct administration of insulin in most cases. Severe hyperglycemia can be treated with oral hypoglycemic therapy and lifestyle modification.
