Hello everyone, simple enough question I'm struggling to answer but does anyone happen to know if Creon raises blood glucose levels?, thanks for any response.

Poor grammar, bullying and drunks.
Creon side effects include raised bg levels in some people and lowered levels in others.

Thank you for that, it helps answer some of the mystery around my bg going up and down so dramatically even when consuming the same meals. It really is turning out to be really complicated.

I am also on Creon but am not aware of any discrepancies because of it. If you are on Creon I assume like me you have pancreatic insufficiency of digestive enzymes. Just wondered if you ever been tested for type 3c.

I have got pancreatitis and was originally diagnosed by the gp as type 3 but this was changed by the diabetic consultant I saw at the hospital but since seeing the consultant I've lost all confidence in him, trying to educate myself and it's difficult for this old dog, it would appear, hehe.

Thanks for the response everyone, yeah if truth be told I'm still at the clutching at straws stage trying to make sense of the readings I get and the unpredictability of the ailment, pancreatitis and diabetes, type 3 or type 2, misdiagnosed or not????, I'm just confused but that doesn't seem to be that surprising as most people seem to be informed and then cut loose to work it out for ourselves.
