As his sugars get back to normal on a regular basis he will regain his energy pretty quickly. Keep in mind that 700 is 7 times the normal amount and he has a long way to go but the recovery can be quick if the levels are kept normal. Monitor that sugar is the best thing to do. If the levels are not back to normal see the Dr. again for dose changes to get it right.
