high bg

Hey all, I'm new here I wondered does anyone suffer insulin resistance? I'm type 1 on Fiasp and this morning I had a stressful situation which my levels rose to 18.0 and I have been struggling to get them below 14? I have taken so much insulin and nothing really changes. I'm not stressed now...

hi this is maybe a weird question to ask, but i’ve had blood sugars in the 30’s (almost 600 mg/dl) for hours now and i have some ketones. highest they’ve been today is 2.3 on a blood ketone meter. my question is, how likely is it to go into a diabetic coma? i’m getting worried about it cause...

I am on insulin (Novorapid + Levemir) and my diabetes is well controlled. Two weeks ago I was prescribed 5mg Amlodipine daily to bring my blood pressure back to normal. I've suffered no obvious side effects, and it appeared to have no effect on my diabetes. Today I took my reading as normal...

Hi guys, I know this is early days, but I've had three days of Alogliptin now, and my sugars are still as high as they were before. I know it might be a tablet that takes a while to kick in, I just wondered how long it should take to start working? So I can give it the right amount of time to...

I’ve got a pain in my groin and lower back and I’ve noticed my blood sugars aren’t reaponding the same as you usually do to the insulin and are hovering around the 12s and rising higher at night?! I posted last week and did have a dud batch do insulin but they still seem high?? My health has...

Hi, for the past 3-4 days I have been experiencing high blood sugars. I am objecting what I would normally inject but my bloods are tearing differently. They are lingering around 12-13-14-15 and taking a long time to come down or struggling to get down. I feel ok... I think I may have a grown...

Hellooo, I was just researching and wondered what triggers everyone has when their BGs are high? I am currently have a stretch of High BG levels but can't seem to find or place what could be causing it, this isn't the first time I have had high BG levels and the doctors can't seem to...

Hi, Im Paul. 2 years ago I was tossed from pillar to post for around 5 months at a really bad doctors surgery (seeing 3 doctors in total maybe a total of around 14 times, with no real diagnosis beyond sleep apnea, an STD (Thrush) and life/work stress. Upon transferring to a new practice (at my...

HI All, Im an established pumper as the title says, been on the pump for 7 / 8 years so think I know all its nooks and crannies apart from what happened yesterday. I put a new cannula and reservoir in, the CGM sensor had already been in 2 days so no need to change that thankfully and did all the...

Hi all, I'm currently doing the DAFNE course which has left me a little confused after working with the DSN & dietician to sort out my BG levels. I've been low-carbing for around 2-3 months (with a few cheat weekends) with daily carbs adding to around 40g from veg/salad mostly. According to...

Hi all, I have a recurring problem which occurs frequently where my evening BG - say, 10pm or so is stupidly high even though my dinner was 4 or 5 hours previously. Tonight for example, I was 6.5 before eating (a miracle in itself!), had a meal which contained around 40g of carbs (diced new...

Hi all, Haven't posted on here pretty much since my diagnosis - so hello again! I am wondering - have any women experienced BG control issues with the contraceptive pill? I am having an issue where my BG is dropping massively in my pill free week, and my insulin need the rest of the time just...
