So, I've had insulin added to my ever growing list of meds. I moved to the ward but have had a set back. Call me Linda and The Giant Breast. My sugar levels went sky high, I'm back on the insulin drip, it's been hourly ops though the night, nil by mouth and the likely hood of more surgery 😔

I hope things start to settle down and your insulin levels get under control. Take care and let the staff look after you xx

Thank you, sugar levels have stabilised, I've just seen my surgeon. I'm having surgery this morning to deal with a heamatoma.

Hopefully they can do that under a local anaesthetic and you won’t have to have a full anaesthetic, best wishes xx

You are added to my prayer list. Sometimes stress contributes to elevation in blood sugar.
