[QUOTE="Mommayorkie, post: 676983, member: 37348"] i am not sure about this. my fbs was normally between 6 and 7. on average. i know that steroids can push mine up (scared to death now that ill get a chest infection and need to go on them again). a week last friday a locum doc at my surgery started me on Bumetamide 1mg. a diuretic/water tablet because one of my legs got fluid on it.upto yesterday morning ,for about 3 mornings my FBS rose each morning to over 7, highest being 7.3. night before last i had a lousy night. didnt get to sleep till 7am, was woken up at 9.30am .had to get up because i was getting unexpected visitors.my usual supper is about 10pm consists of 1 Weetabix on a bed of cornflakes . go to bed between 12 and 1am.at 5am , because i couldnt sleep ,was hungry, i had 3/4 of a cup of hot milk with 1 crust and 1 slice dry weightwatchers white bread.have done this before on the odd times ive still been up at that time, with no problems. at 9.45am when i took my fbs i was astounded to find it was 13. so apart from lack of sleep (which has never affected my fbs before, the only difference was the water pill.but that was a big jump from 7.3 the morning before to 13.can only think was a combo of the water pill plus lack of sleep.i didnt take a water pill the following morning (yesterday) as was going out for the day. this morning my bloods were back to7.it does say on the leaflet that the water pills can put your bloods up a bit.i have taken one today so will see what tomorrows fbs is.if its up again, then guess whose getting a phone call. i never had this happen on Ferusomide. though the 40mg of those i had been on didnt make any significant difference, whereas these do.my leg going right down to almost normal. this wont answer your question but may help. as there may be a possibility that a bad night may contribute to a higher BS in some people.
