Yes, absolutely. I've heard stories of people living with a bg over 900, but that's dangerously high. It's equally dangerous to get super low, like under 40, I believe. Here's a little thing I've put together to help diabetics get more informed:
For type I and type II diabetics.
I've found a wonderful book that will help you control your diabetes and minimize or even eliminate the complications. I'm a type II,but it helps both types, especially us type IIs. It's by an author who has really done his homework. I have tried his suggestions and found them to be very helpful. I have no complications whatsoever and my blood sugar levels are quite stable. Yes, I still have to take Metformin (Glucophage) daily, but it's the minimum dosage (500mg) and I only have to take it twice a day.
It explains what's going on in our system and what to do about it. It's really easy and inexpensive. It's basically supplements and exercise. For example, did you know that cinnamon helps blood sugar absorbtion? It also controls cholesterol and triglycerides. This is according to the USDA.
For men: Are you suffering from erectile dysfunction? I was. Yes, was. Now that everything's under control, I'm able to have nearly normal sex again.

I've also put together a little webpage highlighting some of the things I've learned here: http://www.geocities.com/seabulls69/Type_II_Diabetes.html
Here's another great health site with all kinds of general health information:

The answer is yes. High blood sugar is usually not a problem. It's more common when the blood sugar level is very low causing a person to passout wherever they happen to be. Same can happen with high sugar levels, but it's more common with low blood sugar. That said, one does not die from diabetes because it's one of those insidious diseases where it causes lots of other things to happen that are fatal, such as heart, liver and kidney diseases as well as nerve damage. The list of diabetic complications is long and it's a one way path if not caught in time.

Yes, blood sugars that are too high can cause coma and death as can blood sugars that are too low if left untreated. Closely monitor blood sugars and call 911 if the level is too high or too low. Seriously, it's nothing to mess around with.

Yes they can. Mind you the sugar level would have to be from 250 or higher depending on the build of the person.
Not only can they go into a diabetic coma and die as a result; over time with sugar levels that are higher than normal 70 to 110 the complications from diabetes range from Blindness to kidney failure.... Please refer to the american diabetes association and look up the complications as a result of diabetes the list goes on and on.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Yes - too much blood sugar is called diabetic coma and can lead to death.
Too low blood sugar in a diabetic is called insulin shock and can also lead to death.

Yes. You can go into diabetic shock or a coma. Your organs can begin to slowly shut down one by one causing death.
