Type 2 Any ideas?

I could feel my body wanting to shut down while driving home from work this morning, I had to fight to keep awake, I also felt wooly headed and my legs felt wobbly. I had a sandwich as soon as I got home thinking my BS had dropped but when I tested it was at 7.2mmol which is high for me. I went to bed soon after but just didn't feel right the I woke with a couple of times with uncontrollable shivering. When I got up at 12:30 my BG was still 7.2mmol where I'm normally around 4.5mmol. I still felt the same as earlier. This evening my BG is now 8.5mmol. I do have a swollen septic finger, don't know if this would cause these symptoms, I am at a loss and feel like absolute c**p. I have only had approx. 50g of carbs all day.

I'll ring my gp in the morning if I'm still bad, This is the first time in 15yrs that I've phoned in sick for work.

I have just posted myself about how my blood sugars that are usually well in control are so high for me, I have been ill for the last two weeks, like flu and shivering I know I picked up slapped cheek from my daughter and wondering if this awful illness is messing with my numbers. Maybe it’s the finger causing the problems, I had a septic finger a few months back, tcp or detol in as hot as you can stand water helped me massively but antibiotics if it gets worse.

Thank you, I'll try the tcp in hot water.
