High blood sugar: Most people with this are adults and the vast majority of those are also obese or overweight and may note diabetes in family members. Therefore, losing weight (diet/exercise/proper sleep) is fundamental. If sugars remain high, there are various classes of medications that will correct the problem.

Depends: Depends how high sugars are, but dietary changes are always helpful (stop regular sodas, juices, candy) and possibly medications.

Find out why!: For someone under treatment for diabetes, it is very important to find out why the blood is high. Infections, and other serious illnesses could make the sugars go up. Some meds, especially steroids, can make sugars go up. If the high blood sugar is not a surprise, you can help get it down by avoiding carbs (sugars/starches) in your meals, exercising lightly, and drinking lots of water.

High blood sugar: Please see your doctor as soon as possible. While waiting for an appointment check your blood sugar on alternate morning (pre-breakfast) and bedtime. What medicines are you taking for your diabetes?

Lifestyle changes: Hi, First, if you have Diabetes of any form, I would recommend taking medication as prescribed by your personal physician. Lifestyle modification focused on consumption of Low Glycemic Index foods and light physical activity (like a medium paced walk) after meals can help decrease blood sugar spikes.
