    Type 2 High blood sugar after surgery

    Hi I've had hernia repair surgery done today. My sugars for the last 2 years were 6/7 but they up to 13 now for few hours. I'm off metformin at the moment but I've got some left. Does anyone experienced high sugars after surgery? If so how long they have lasted and did you used metformin? Thanks
