The signs of hyperglycemia are polydipsia (a great thirst), polyuria (a need to urinate often), and a dry mouth. The term "hyperglycemia" comes from the Greek "hyper-" = high, over, beyond, above + "glykys" = sweet + "haima" = blood. [rxlist.com]

Neurologic
- Confusion
People who have severe hypoglycemia may feel very drowsy and confused, and might even become unconscious. If this happens, someone else can inject the hormone glucagon. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Complications of Hyperglycemia Hyperglycemia or high blood sugar (also spelled hyperglycemia, not to be confused with the opposite disorder, hypoglycemia) is a condition in which an excessive amount of glucose circulates in the blood plasma. [longdom.org]
Hyperglycemia, or high blood sugar (also spelled hyperglycaemia or hyperglycæmia, not to be confused with the opposite disorder, hypoglycemia) is a condition in which an excessive amount of glucose circulates in the blood plasma. [omicsonline.org]
Ultimately the person has very high blood sugars and is very dehydrated and is confused or in a coma (unconscious). This is a serious medical emergency that can lead to death. Immediate hospitalization is required. [dtc.ucsf.edu]
- Seizure
Abstract Seizures related to nonketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) are often encountered in clinical practice. Among such seizures, reflex seizures are rare, and most of them are movement-induced focal seizures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

- Decerebrate Posturing
He demonstrated transient decerebrate posturing upon stimulation; however, he became conscious within a week of admission, and his associated diseases also improved. After correcting his hyperglycemia, the patient was discharged on foot. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
- Dysmetria

Prevention
Furthermore, the AR inhibitor fidarestat prevented the expression of NLRP inflammasome components in STZ-induced diabetic mouse heart and aorta, and also prevented the release of various cytokines in the serum. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
