[QUOTE="AndyS, post: 195139, member: 20775"] +1 on that. Sunburn can almost be considered another kind of trauma and your body will release a whole cocktail of things to try and deal. You may find that your sugars will runn high or that you need to increase your insulin slightly until it gets better. Last time I managed to burn myself well I tested a bit more often and just made sure I kept well hydrated. I found I had to do more correction doses with meals but it all settled down after a few days. Of course one thing to remember is warm days can change how quickly your body absorbs insulin and may increase its effects. SO we get back to keep testing :) Hope your sunburn heals up soon and you end up with a nice tan instead of it just falling off. /A [/QUOTE]
