[QUOTE="neithskye, post: 2470033, member: 484290"] I tried Googling my question. What I found instead were some articles saying what you just did--some non-diabetic people ended up with diabetes after COVID. I don't think they know if the virus caused diabetes or if the person would have gotten diabetes later anyway, and the virus sped up the process. So, yes, I'm wondering if it affects existing diabetes. During this time I've also experienced extreme dry mouth. I have zero saliva. My tongue is sticking to the roof of my mouth, even when my BG is normal. Of course this all assumes my negative COVID test was wrong. I'm wondering if the tests can't pick the new Omicron strain or something. I should get retested. Thank you for answering. [/QUOTE]
