[QUOTE="BooJewels, post: 873795, member: 181094"] I would suggest that it's more likely to be the stress of the procedure than any BG raising element in the injection itself. Stress does raise BG - and I don't mean the kind of stress of you being frantic with worry, the procedure itself will have stressed the body and it does tend to pump out glucose in order to fuel the fight against some stressor or invader to your body. And a med like Metformin would have no effect on reducing a temporary blip in BG like that anyway - it's slow acting and works best on more of a long-term use. The best way to get BG down (as long as it's not very high) is a little activity to use it up and drinking plenty. I really don't think you should concern yourself over it, that in itself is likely to make it worse, just follow your normal successful regime and it will soon sort itself out. [/QUOTE]
