I had my flu jab last month and then my husband went to the Netherlands on business and has brought back what I think must be a different flu strain so I am well into it now. It's the first time I've had flu since diagnosis (Type II) in 2006 so I'm just a bit worried - should I be?! My temperature has been up to 39.1 but is controlled by paracetamol, etc. I've been advised this year to stop testing my own blood sugars - cause anxiety, etc, etc, and I am sure that my sugars are up but can, and, should I do anything about it? I'm currently taking gliciazide to control the diabetes. Happy days! Thanks for any thoughts . . .
