Hi,
I'm pre-diabetic teetering on the edge of type 2 and a bit of a stress-head.
How quickly does stress translate into high BS? Is it more or less immediately or a few hours later?
I was under some stress this morning and I went from 6.1 (fasting, not stressed, had breakfast soon after) to 9.2 (2h30 later, stressed). My post-breakfast morning values are never normally that high.
My breakfast was "fromage blanc" with defrosted mixed berries (it's the first time I've had the mixed berries), which I don't think would have caused that high a spike but I will test the same food another time under less stressful conditions.
Are those of you affected able to manage your stress? I've been thinking about starting yoga...
