[QUOTE="Pipp, post: 1509189, member: 100904"] Hi [USER=240814]@Lizzie2[/USER] Sorry you are not feeling well. I have to take Prednisolone sometimes. As often as 3 or 4 x five day courses a year. Sometimes with antibiotics. I find that for a while, ( up to 3 or 4 weeks after) I have higher blood glucose readings, particularly in the mornings. I think it important to keep to low carb diet, and to drink plenty of water, whilst taking the meds, but just accept for a few weeks BG will be higher than I like. The need for steroids and antibiotics is sometimes greater than the need to keep BG numbers low. Hope you feel better soon. [/QUOTE]
