[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2395404, member: 6467"] There is a long thread about high BG after Covid vaccination. I've just had my second jab. I ate very low carb and my BG kept on going down. Not alarmingly so, but steady. I was woken up by my Libre 2 alarm when dropping off around 23h:00 with a 3.2. I put this down to lying on the sensor. BG came back up soon after. However I had another alarm around 02:00 (lying on sensor again) then my Libre 2 had a hissy fit and refused to scan. Looking at the numbers my BG had been steadily trending lower, well below 5, so I decided to have a yoghurt and some jam just in case. After rebooting my phone, again just in case, I managed to scan and my BG was up like a rocket. Blank half hour or so when the sensor wouldn't read. All fine and well but this morning I didn't get the usual DP and my BG is trending down again. I won't know for another few hours but I'm wondering if this is a side effect of the vaccine. I'm still on just Metformin so no glucose lowering medication to blame. Oh, and my knees hurt. [/QUOTE]
