Hi @NageshZotshokaziNduneni,
This is a dangerous situation. It can be deadly.
It needs to be treated immediately. See your doctor today. Go to the hospital. Whatever you need to do.

I repeat when cells can't get energy, especially your brain, you will die. Adequate insulin is required for a type 1. When you don't get enough working insulin, your body begins eating your heart too, for energy.
----------------------------
β€œWhen the glucose doesn't arrive in your cells, your body thinks it's starving and finds a way to compensate. It creates energy by burning fat and muscle at a rapid pace. This causes unexplained weight loss,”
---------------------------
A dangerous situation. Go to the ER, NOW.
Do not wait.
