[QUOTE="smidge, post: 359498, member: 29301"] Hi Elaine! Yeh, it will probably be the cold pushing up your levels. The first illness I had after diagnosis, my levels went up into double-figures and I had to more than double my insulin doses just to keep them there. I was terrified, but they gradually came back to normal after the infection cleared. It's something to do with your body becoming more insulin-resistant when it's fighting infection as a defence mechanism. Take it easy, get plenty of rest and try not to worry! Smidge [/QUOTE]
