[QUOTE="brianmt, post: 1997532, member: 412792"] I was recently given 40g of Prednisolone daily for a chest infection. It was a short 4 day course. My normal fasting BS is about 5.0 . Day one my BS rose to 10.8 after taking the medication and stayed high all day. BS next morning was 7'0 Day 2 after taking my medication it rose to 12.6 and stayed that high again all day . Next morning phoned my doctor ( it wasn't him that prescribed me the medication) he was quite alarmed at the rise and told me to stop. Luckily my fasting BS came back down to 5.3 after 2 days I'm type 2 BTW and prednisolone is known to raise BS levels [/QUOTE]
