November 21 I had a covid booster, a week later my stable blood sugars went through the roof, from 6 to 8, to 15/17. (Hba1c had been around 48) A dramatic change as I’m not on any medication. “Ignore it” my diabetic nurse said (not my usual one but another lady). I contacted them again a month...

In November I had my booster, and within a week I got high figures, from 7 up to 15, this continued, through an operation in January and later Covid itself in April. When discussing it with a Diabetic nurse, I was told off for testing, made to feel I was wasting her time and told I shouldn’t be...

Well I had an operation 5 weeks ago and I’m now 16 in the morning and 19 to 20 throughout the day, I stopped testing during my recuperation as I was in so much pain I ate what I liked (still sensiblish), figures don’t seem to be coming down

16.6 I don’t know what’s happening anymore

Thanks for the comments, well keyhole turned to full surgery, I’m in a great deal of pain and can’t go to the loo. My wife is looking after me like the saint she is. Diet is out of the window at the moment, tablets being taken every few hours. It’s really such fun [emoji23] safe to say I will...

Todays the day for the op, so see you when I come out

8.2 this morning, not helped by having a nightmare before I woke up

Thanks for the replies, the advice given to me by the doctor was low fat for the rest of my life, I hope she hadn’t seen something in my results she wasn’t letting on about [emoji849]. I will see how I do after surgery , thank you for the advice

Morning all, in a few days time I’m having my gall bladder removed, the advice is to have a low fat diet, but I control my type 2 by a low carb diet already, (80 g of carbs a day) I’m not on any medication. Is it possible to have a low fat, low carb diet?

I had my covid booster and flu jab just before it went up but that was three weeks ago, but that would explain the high readings. Thanks for replying

Thanks for reply’s, diet is constant (breakfast and lunch) 30g carbs for both. I suppose it’s the sudden change which is concerning, I will keep an eye on my readings to see how they change, but thanks for explaining what might be happening

7.4 frustrated

For the last 3 weeks I’ve had readings of around 8 first thing in the morning. Previous to this they were around 6. Readings after breakfast are now 9 whereas before they were 7, readings throughout the day haven’t changed. Last nights meal was 6.2 pre meal at 6 pm, 9.4 at 8pm , I did half an...

6.1 this morning, still trying to establish what causes me to go high

6.8 this morning, stayed in the green all week [emoji106]

Thanks, that makes the readings more understandable. Thankfully it’s very rare we argue, but that’s another thing I’ve got to avoid

Had a very frustrating argument with my Daughter tonight, so much so I forgot to take a reading pre food. After food it was 10.5, normally I would expect 7,5. Is it just one of those things or does emotional state have an effect?
