Sounds like the residual effect of those poor readings and now the slow recovery from same.
 
Hi and welcome,

some people report painful symptoms when their blood glucose rises above certain levels (unique to each person).

Might be a good idea to monitor how high your blood glucose is rising after lunch and evening meal. If your symptoms correspond with certain foods in the preceding meal, and avoiding those foods/blood glucose levels relieves your symptoms, then you could adjust your meal choices to avoid the discomfort.

Hope that helps.

Scarlet - Some people find they have some strange symptoms when they get their blood sugars into a better place, post-diagnosis, however, I advise you speak to your Doc or Nurse about your symptoms, just to ensure all is well.
