[QUOTE="Robbity, post: 2070550, member: 93179"] Like [USER=400972]@Rachox[/USER] I've had corticosteroid injections. Both times they raised my glucose levels which stayed up higher for several days, but then came back down again to my usual levels. I imagine with a course it would take somewhat longer, but it might be worth doing a forum search as this topic as cropped up on previous occasions. (I also needed to use corticosteroid eye drops long term and years before I got diabetes, and I did wonder in retrospect whether these together with statins, may have been in part responsible for causing my T2 - but when I checked, those eye drops don't apparently cause a rise in glucose! o_Oo_O) Robbity [/QUOTE]
