[QUOTE="cott97, post: 1532621, member: 70448"] Hi Apologies if this sounds confused, I understand pain can raise your BS levels. If this is under control with medication does it still raise your levels or only when you get breakthrough pain. Logic tells me it's the latter but my BS levels whilst I am asleep seem to be rising but the pain is not severe enough to wake me. The pain during the day has now hit the "need to do something" level as it's impacting my movement. Unfortunately this is an ongoing condition for me for which the treatment is strong painkillers, muscle relaxants and physio and for which I have been under a pain consultant so nothing more I can do to control it. As I am in the process of adjusting my insulin as only started a few weeks ago on a mixed insulin I am interested in whether or not the highs I am seeing are real in the long term or pain related. If anyone suffers with chronic pain how much do your BS rise if you have a flair up? Thanks for bearing with the waffle Cath [/QUOTE]
