I'm type 2 and coeliac. Last week I had a horrendous cold, which went by the weekend, but has left me with catarrh. Initially my bg levels didn't alter and remained pretty much along the usual lines of between 6 and 9, 2hrs after food. Since late last week, they have been creeping up and are now sometimes around 10 to 12 depending on what I've eaten and time of day etc.
I'm on 40mg gliclazide with breakfast, 120 with lunch and 160 with dinner at night. I was wondering if a cold/virus can affect the bg's. I'm eating a fairly low carb diet, but because I've lost so much weight with the coeliac, it's a bit of a fine balance. I'm not sure what to do, so any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Libbyloo
