Hi Kat
There's definitely some winter bugs going around at the moment at least two of my friends have come down with it in the last week, the one round here seems to last 3 or 4 days, fortunately I haven't caught it yet.

Take care of yourself and hope you feel better soon

Just remember to keep an eye on your BG and check for keytones as appropriate.

Anything above 0.6 and it would be best to seek advice from your DSN. I'm pretty sure anything in the range 0.6-1.6 they will let you deal with yourself with close monitoring, if I remember correctly.
Try and drink as much as you can if you don't feel like eating and make sure you still take your long acting insulin.
