I'm a type 1 diabetic who has recently got his tonsils out. I got them taken out last Friday morning. For 24 hours I had to take steroid injection to reduce swelling as it was really affect me. Since the steroid my BG levels have been high teens which I expected them to go up but have also upped all my ratios. Then today(Thursday) at 15:30 I had a massive bleed on my throat which I know can be common but this is when things have got messed up. I've been fasting since then and not been allowed take any insulin or put on a drip since the bleed at 15:30. It's now 1:00am and I'm still not allowed take insulin or a drip and I know have trace ketone and my blood sugar is 16 and rising. I take a split dose of Levemir at 8am and 9pm so I currently have no active insulin in me....does this make any sense to anyone else???
