[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2021923, member: 85785"] For just over two weeks, I have had to battle to keep my blood glucose levels in normal levels. Despite fasting, eating very little, working through the fortnight, which is regular exercise (lots!) My body refuses to stay in ketosis! Why? A severe head cold! Even my fasting levels are averaging 6.3! It has been in mid sevens on a couple of days! This has had my head all over the place and feeling really rough! Only armed with paracetamol and a nasal spray, could I try and combat the virus! I've been deaf in my left ear for ten of those days, I've never been deaf before and had ringing, cracking and pain when I blew my nose, I'm not going deaf when I get to my dotage, headache behind and above my eyes because of sinusitis, nose constantly running, cold, warm, sweaty. Sniffles, snuffles and a share issue in Kleenex. I can't concentrate enough and had to rely on other people at home and in work. Tired, lethargy, sleeping too much, even my eyes have altered my vision of the world! (Again, just like retinopathy, but not as bad!) The worst was knowing that whatever I tried, wouldn't get me back into ketosis, mainly because of the high temperature, only a few points above normal temperature, kept raising my bloods! I still feel dreadful, but getting better! The weather is not helping! Gonna start a longer fast on Sunday, when I'm off work! Being out of normal blood glucose levels is horrible! I hate it! What's your worst experience, since getting good control of your blood glucose levels? [/QUOTE]
