Hi
My names Alan and I have had the worst 2 days of my life since getting a steroid injection yesterday my glucose levels
are in excess of 33.3 most of the night and I cant contain them any lower than 23.5.
Called NHS 24 who sent me to the local A&E where a Young Doctor told me to stop reacting to my high counts by injecting extra insulin over and beyond my pump as this would be causing me to hypo in my sleep, taking no notice to the fact that I have not slept at all last night being up every hour try to bring my levels down.
thought I had it on the run today until tea time when I started rising from 23.2 to 30.6 so looks like another sleepless night.
I have only eaten 2 meals in the last 36 hours.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
