Hello Everyone I'm new to this website. My mother has been type 2 diabetic for about 10 years now and also has Alzheimer's Disease (about 3 years); she's recently for the first time experiencing really sudden high blood sugars which is exacerbating her Alzheimer's terribly. She's still in hospital at the moment (day 4) as her blood sugars are taking a long, long time to come down. Does anyone else have any experience of sudden blood sugar highs? No changes to her lifestyle or diet have taken place. We're hoping today that her doctor will change the type of insulin she's taking, she's usually on Mixtard.
I'm guessing that her insulin needs a total revamp but any advice would be gratefully received.
