Hello everyone,
I’m after some advice if possible.
I seem to have come down with gastroenteritis and ended up in A&E with it on Sunday, not quite reached DKA luckily but had to stay in hospital for a couple days.
I was discharged on Tuesday and thought I was doing ok, but last night after eating I felt very sick again, ketones went up to 0.8 and my blood sugars went up to 13 overnight. I managed to get them down (BG and ketones), but its left me quite scared.
I’m feeling nauseous this morning, managing to drink but unsure if I can keep any food down. Can I skip a meal (or several) or would this be dangerous? Im worried about ketones going up again.
Im waiting for a call back from the diabetes team, but any advice in the meantime would be great!
