What Does High Blood Sugar Level With Increased Thirst Indicate?

I am diabetic and I just checked my husband's sugar because he has been so thirsty. His level the first time was 474. I took it again in 5 minutes to make sure there wasn't a mistake. It was 417. Is this dangerous or should her wait until Monday to call his Dr.?
