Hi all. I have had a crazy week with my BGs all over the place and have finally grasped why -- I was put on betamethasone for mouth ulcers. It hasn't helped the ulcers but it seems to have been responsible for sending my sugars sky-rocketing. My GP usually checks for this sort of thing, but has slipped up this time. Just a reminder to always check on google for side-effects of ANY medication we are given (I should have known that steroids are always bad for BGs anyway). It's an odd relief because I had been about to conclude that there was no food left that I could still eat without sending up my numbers. Hooray.
