Loved ones thought I was drunk bc blood sugar was 467 and kept increasing - anyone experience this before?

The other day my blood sugar started around 467 and kept climbing.  Those around me were convinced I was inebriated.  Very frustrating as I felt like sheer hell! Has anyone else dealt with this and if so how did you handle it?   Any advice would be greatly appreciated.  My diagnosis is less than 2 months so this is all quite new to me.  Thanks everyone!
