I have been diabetic for more than 14 years. My sugars have been under good control with the use of Insulin, Metformin and sitagliptin. Recently the GP cut my sitagliptin by 50% (because of kidney difficulties) and 3 months later my sugars have crept up. I also have osteo arthritis and at the same time the GP (for good reasons) stopped my NSAID medication and this has caused my sugars to rocket. 20.9 before breakfast the other day. 12.9 this morning when I had tried very hard.
Is this raise in blood sugar likely to associated with the increase in inflamation of my arthritis? (This is very painful now.)
Thanks in anticipation
