Elevated beta hydroxybutyrate with normal blood sugar

Posted by bumble81 @bumble81, Jul 20, 2020

I just got test results back and it shows my betahydroxybutyrate is elevated but my blood sugar was 90 at the time.
Has anyone else had this happen?

@bumble81, you mentioned in another thread that you keep ending up in ER and are dehydrated no matter how much you drink. @maxmaximus3 spoke of this before and was diagnosed with diabetic ketoacidosis. Was diabetic ketoacidosis mentioned to you? How are you managing now?
