Need some advice ASAP

Hi I have been doing a rehabilatation programme at work which has went really well.

However today I'm having a problem my manager has come out to see me at the store I'm doing my rehabilatation programme at and after a meeting with him I have been left really angry at him and the company I'm also stressed right out my bloods were fine I tested after the meeting and I have went from 7.8 to 9.8 in the space of 15 mins.

Iv tested again 30 mins later and I'm now 13.7 my levels are going up and up.

Should I continue to work or should I take insulin to bring them down am not sure as it is obviously stress and anger that has caused this what should I do ?

Whenever I found myself under stress in work and my BSs rising I would always take a bolus correction and more often than not have to put my pump up using the temporary basal option until things had calmed down a bit. Obviously during this time I tested more often as we'll hope things start to get better through the afternoon.

Iv never been in this situation before I have never had to take correction doses before and I'm unsure when and how to do them but is that what is need in my case ?

Thanks for your message.
