    Prenisolone and T1D

    My levels rose yesterday morning but constant corrections got it down to 9.5 pre bed at 10pm. I took the meds with my evening meal around 7pm. I woke this morning on another high of 22, which after correction and 30 min walk to work rose to 27! Been emailing my DSN throughout the day.
