[QUOTE="chrisbug, post: 2512895, member: 532065"] I started feeling rough Monday day during work, got home at 01:30 Tuesday morning feeling pretty ropey, got a negative covid test. By Tuesday afternoon I had a positive covid result, and just feel washed out with cold like symptoms. My time in range has gone from 90% to 45%. And my blood glucose has peaked at 15mmol/L. Interestingly if my blood sugar goes high for other reasons, moderate exercise (on bike trainer) will lower it nicely, doesn't seem to affect my covid high, maybe it was going uphill and my time on bike trainer just stopped it from going even higher. Ive increased my bolus, but obviously not by enough, I'm worried about going low once things start to resume. My blood sugar is at 9.2 mmol/L at present and I feel horrible. And yep, checking for ketones and plenty of fluid. [/QUOTE]
