General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

During an infection, the blood sugar would increase due to the stress response of the body but it should not elevate these levels.

This may indicate that he has underlying diabetes and he may need investigations to determine if he is a diabetic.

The medication for nausea should help to control his vomiting and nausea.

I hope this helps
