Question has anyone experienced a spike in blood glucose levels after COVID booster? I had mine on Monday and since then I have had unexplained spikes. The only change has been my booster. I was wondering if anyone else had had a similar experiences.

I had mine a week ago and have felt a bit peculiar since.
I don't really test these days but have definitely been feeling tired and foggy which can indicate high glucose.
I've also been a bit chesty and wheezy which isn't nice.
I think these jabs affect us in more ways than some people want to admit.

I have had both the vaccinations and the booster with no rise in BG levels on any of them, and no side effects other than a mildly sore arm and a bit of a headache after the first one.

This is not an unusual reaction to any jabs or drugs.

Thank You for the feed back. It’s good to know that others have had similar experiences
Cheers for getting back to me. Really appreciate feed back. In the past my diabetes has not been affected by vaccinations either but there had been no other changes and it set me wondering.
