i think im coming down with a virus my first one since diagnoses 3 weeks ago what am i to expect are my bs going to go wild are might they just be normal i know everyones different but ive heard horror stories about catching things and diabetes
I was actually diagnosed T2 whilst I was laid up with an infection. My initial levels were a bit scary but the quack told me to chill because it was "likely to be attributable, in part, to the fact that you're ill". I suspect this was true, because the first finger-prick test showed I had a level of 15 mmol/l and a fasting test at the Hospital, a couple of weeks later when I was feeling better, already showed that it was down to 8-ish, from whence it has retreated further. Co-incidentally, I then got another bug, a couple of months later, by which time I was exercising, eating sensibly and necking metformin, and my levels never went higher than 11 which, whilst high, wasn't the end of the world, imho. They were up for a couple of days then returned to "normal".
All of which is a slightly long-winded way of repeating MikeD's advice to stay cool
