[QUOTE="cott97, post: 1532956, member: 70448"] Yes they have which is how I've managed to start reducing the amount I take. The physio is also helping in maintaining as much movement in my spine as possible which reduces the pull on the muscles and ligaments. I have been lucky in the support I receive but in 3 years I've gone from being able to walk the dog twice a day for a couple of miles to needing a mobility scooter to do the shopping and a walking stick the rest of the time. It's frustrating but by and large I am coping now and hold down a relatively stressful full time job as well. The increase in blood sugars was unexpected so quickly. In my head I had imagined any rise would.take a good few days of severe pain before the rise hit and that has proved incorrect. Interestingly as I have reduced the pain today by restricting movement, Ice packs and hot targeted showers then my blood sugars have started to lower again. For me it looks like they could act as an early warning of severe pain and perhaps enable me to act sooner to reduce the pain which would be a plus side to.diabetes. [/QUOTE]
