I'm sorry if this is a repeated thread. Has anyone had to change their basal rates after having their flu jab.
 
The jab didn't seem to have any effect on my blood sugar levels at all 🙂

As I understood it the vaccine is dead as in not a live vaccine thus in theory there should not be any reaction to it. As you know theories are just that.
Other option is that perhaps you are going down with that dreadful virus doing the rounds. (hope not)
 
Thanks Northerner. Sue I do not have any symptoms, at the moment, I was just wondering what to expect. Thanks for your advice.
