[QUOTE="janeage, post: 837837, member: 178396"] Thanks so much for your reply, its good to know i'm not on my own with this weird and wonderful strain of diabetes!!! It is indeed the fantastic prednisolone i'm taking, and all my respiratory specialists have said is that if i can keep at a steady dose it will make controlling sugars easier, but when i have an exacerbation and have to do increased doses of pred then this make things harder to control! I know i will get there but it is a bit overwhelming!! only just realised the link between the steroids and sugar increases etc The exercise i want to do but again like you i am restricted by how good a time i'm having with my breathing, touch wood its ok so i can go for a walk but not a chance of running!! lol. There is so much of my health that is out side of my own control that i feel this is one thing i can really try and get a handle on i've got a fighting chance, nothing i can do about my steroids they are a part of my day to day life now i've accepted that but this has got to be sortable surely! the way i see it is if i do as much as i can then i know i've tried... i just don't quite know what that should be!!
