Hi,
Does anyone find that hot weather means their blood sugars are lower than normal?
Over the past week I have been ill with a cold and then a mild stomach bug. Over the last couple of days I have been back to eating as normal, but I've noticed my blood sugars aren't raising as much as they previously did.
For example after dinner I would raise to around an 8 and stay there for a few hours. Now I'm not getting above a 6.5.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining! The closer I can stay to being I'm range the happier I am, but it just strikes me as odd as nothing has really changed with my diet.
I'm wondering if the hot weather in the UK is to blame? I've heard some people suffer with more hypos during the summer period.
