Stress and lack of sleep will do that to you, I do hope that you get well soon! It may be a bit of physiological insulin resistance coming in as well if you’re still doing low carb too.Recently injured my shoulder and arm. My fasting BG has gone up to around 5.2... yes I know it’s in a good range but my fasting BG before my injury was around 4.2-4.8mmol
Been sleeping around 3-4 hours a night as I keep getting woken up by the pain...
Extremely stressed right now.
Still doing One Meal A Day as I’m used to it...
Any advice?
Where's that long awaited HBA1C reading?

Did you go to your GP regarding the "injury", did he / she suggest you take any pain killers to kill any aches / pains etc.Recently injured my shoulder and arm
How 'bout your next post deals with the real issue and not the distractions?

Your bgl is still in limits, nothing to worry about there.
Bed bound for an arm injury, that you haven’t sought medical help for. One half of that statement shouldn’t go with the other. Why would an arm injury keep you in bed?
If it’s that severe you can’t even get out of bed then you really urgently should be seen to establish what’s happened to it. If it’s not, then not moving it at all will likely make things worse and risk a frozen shoulder which you really really don’t want.
You do also need to go get that hb1ac.
Sorry I thought you hadn’t seen anyone for the arm. Still not sure why it keeps you bed bound, though perhaps not very active if in a lot of pain. Do try and move it a bit, within the confines of the pain, unless advised otherwise of courseBelieve it or not, my doctor wants to investigate this first as a priority.
I have sought medical help. Had urgent ultrasounds waiting on results next week
Mike believe it or not. When I went to my GP about this I also asked to be sent for a full bloods and to look at my Hba1c.
GP said: you should be more worried about this.

No reason both conditions can’t be addressed simultaneously, though it really doesn’t look like there’s a serious/urgent problem with glucose going on your readings as they pretty good. Looks more and more like some sort of error with that reported high reading in hospital
That's a detour and a lame excuse, NOT a reason. I doubt we're getting the entire picture.
