[QUOTE="busydiabeticmum, post: 1605089, member: 160151"] Hi, it can take several months for your body to get back to "normal". As you know lots of things can upset the balance, a particularly heavy period, stress, pregnancy and sickness can all cause you to go really high or really low... There really is no rhyme or reason and can be very difficult to predict. I would not dwell on the "why's" right now, just try to tackle the Bgl, this will help lower the stress at least a little which may also help the bgl, if the period comes make a note of how heavy and how long compared to the last one, if it is pregnancy then at least you can know and are on top of it... but the most important thing is to get Bgl under control for your health and the potential baby... try lowering carbs and raising veggie intake, make a few changes to diet, go to the doctor to let them know or your dn to find out what they advise. It may be your hormones are all over the place, they may be able to give you something to help if you are not pregnant and if you are they can refer you to a specialist, but I would say it is still really early yet... however if your hormones are being effected and causing raised Bgl then a test should be able to pick that up... the digital one is always a good one to use and can pick up early pregnancy. I hope you get the result you are after... sending a hug, I know what it is like to lose a baby, I also know how hard it is to recover mentally and the effects that has on you and your body. [/QUOTE]
