9.9 this morning and not happy. I've had wisdom teeth out recently and am struggling with the gum disease and infection. I didn't eat a single carb yesterday and yet my body seems to want to pump sugar into my blood still!

Any infection could raise BS, hopefully the infection will settle soon.

Infection and trauma will raise your BG so be kind to yourself and don’t get stressed with the numbers…..that’ll put your BG up as well

Yes, it's discouraging when you know you've eaten nothing the previous day that would have caused this higher-than-expected reading.

I take it your dentist has prescribed antibiotic cover for your gum disease. Here's hoping your low carb lifestyle will start to pay off again, once your infection clears up and your general health improves.
