A CGMS would definitely help ...
How high is high, in your case? I don't get a fever, but the thirst and urination and tiredness when the BG hits around 270 is a killer. I wear a CGMS to nip all high and low BG's in the bud!

If you'd like to add some kind of picture to be your profile photo, look for the "Settings" link in the upper right portion of each page (next to the little silver gears). The very first option in Settings will walk you through changing your profile image. Good luck!
