Hi. Can someone shed any light on what is happening to my BS levels. I am pre-diabetic - fasting BG is usually between 5.8 & 6.3 and occasionally up to 6.7 and 3 hr after evening meals is between 6.5 & 7.5 and very rarely up to 8.2.
I have recently had a steroid injection into my hip to try and solve a problem with my hip. The day after it my fasting BG shot up to 8.9 and 3 hr after a meal to 11.2 !!! Alarming to say the least. What is just as interesting is now, 8 days after the injection, my fasting BG is way down and not been above 6.1 in the last few days, and my 3 hr BG 5.6 to 7.1.
I am not aware of having made any other changes and am left wondering if the steroid has improved my pre-diabetes or if this is purely co-incidental.
