[QUOTE="pavlosn, post: 2071754, member: 22572"] I have no doubts that stress does of itself raise glucose levels. Also it is harder to stay motivated and "good"/disciplined during stressful times. So do not be too hard on yourself. But do take note of the increase in your HbA1C and try to keep better control where you can. Personally I have also been prescribed an additional glucose lowering medication by my doctor. In my case it was after I requested he does so. I asked for the extra help as I felt that as this is a difficult period for me with work pressures and other health concerns taking their toll trying to control my levels mainly through diet was putting too much pressure on me. For now at least I am willing to accept the extra medication if it helps me regain control of my levels and my life. Hopefully at a later stage I may be able to lower the medication. What counts is to stay healthy and to be able to carry on with as normal a life as possible. How we achieve this is not as important. Take care of yourself. Regards Pavlos [/QUOTE]
