High blood sugars

[djry]

Hi does anyone know if your blood sugars would be high in the morning I've got chronic pancreatitis and I was at a&e 2days ago I've got an inflammation of my pancreas and woke up this morning and my blood sugars are 13.4

if you have that are you not more likely to be type 3c and you will need insulin. im surprised its not been investigated.

Yeh having the chronic pancreatitis would definitely be putting your sugar levels up. Maybe you need to be making some adjustments to your insulin dosages... best to speak to your doc and hopefully they can figure that out for you. Your body would certainly be under stress though with the infection.

@paulus1 - this is the insulin section of type 2 page and OP is on insulin.

My advice I’d see a diabetes specialist and I’m sure they can help you on how to manage your blood sugar

How are you @willie01 ?
Have you managed to get that 19.1 a lot lower?

Monitor 19.1 ? I was a bit higher than that and admitted to hospital. See endocrinologist right away !

I was told (before I started on Insulin) by me DN when my sugar levels are high, to drink lots of water. But I suppose you can just go to A&E. I know, it is not pleasant, but if your access to specialists are like mine, this will give you quicker access.
The best in our area is that we have a diabetic team we can call five working days for advice.
