Any advice?

[Boscat]

I was recently diagnosed by PMR and GCR complications and prescribed large doses of steroids. My blood/sugar reading have gone crazy and everything I've learnt as a 30-year veteran of diabetes has been stood on it's head. Any advice would be welcome.

Sorry, PMR and GCR?

Maybe Polymyalgia Rheumatica and . . . . . . ? GCR has several possibilities in medical terms.

Speak to your doctor in case you need additional meds while you're dealing with the effect of the steroids.

Hope you feel better soon.

I just hope you are not looking at long term steroids. If not then the chances are that when you stop taking them your blood sugars will once again normalize.
