[QUOTE="fred1234, post: 912957, member: 87202"] Hi I have steroid induced insulin dependent diabetes. I have had this for 3 years. I have copd hence maintenance dose of steroids 20mg daily. I inject 8 units daily of novomix30 insulin at lunch time. I don't take any other medications for my diabetes. I frequently suffer from exacerbation of my chest and have to increase my steroids and usually antibiotics but my sugars never go that high. You should I think get advice from your gp or Dsn on your levels as they do seem rather high although I'm no expert whatsoever. Also watching my carbs and sugars has helped, trying to come to grips with carb watching!!!! Hope your levels come down soon and you feel better [/QUOTE]
