:? Hi
I am pre diabetic and am doing the low carb diet. I keep having problems with my blood sugars not going back to the level it was at 2 hours after food. I am counting all carbs as much as I can.
Can any one tell me why my BG was 6.6 before breakfast ( 2 small slices of bacon and 1 small sausage.) 2 hours after breakfast it was 7.9. This is high for me I had the usual bacon and sausage that I usually eat.. My BG has been unstable all week. Could it be down to me hurting my back and having a lot of pain ?.
I am becoming disheartened with all this as I am doing as much as I can to prevent diabetes.
Any help would be appreciated

Any illness will put up your Bg levels. Even some painkillers can do that too. It will settle back down once you are feeling better........try not to worry too much about this.

I had over 6 months of Bg levels being massively high and then low (24 - 2.9) due to Cancer and the treatment I was put on. That treatment and the illness are now finished, hopefully.....blood sugar levels all getting back to normal without much of a change in my HbA1c levels and no ill effects. Sometimes the Diabetes (or pre diabetes) has to take a back seat.

Hi Ken

Thank you so much for your reply. I was quite worried.
Its all new and confusing. Glad I could ask a question and stop worrying.
Sounds like you have had a rough time. I wish you well in the future
