My sugar levels are out of control. I just tested at 24 and all I had was fish and chips and veg. Normally that wouldn't even take me past 10. I have recently increased my gliclazide because I was averaging 12-13 over a 7 day period.
I am not long out of ICU and am still recovering. Could that be affecting my sugar levels and how I am processing food? I have been told it can take up to 2 years to recover from being critically ill.
I suffer from many health conditions and take 13 different drugs every day including morphine and I can barely walk due to a damaged pelvis. I do mobilise every day to keep going but not far enough to affect my blood sugar. I can only potter about.
Should I go back to see a diabetic nurse? Or see if it calms down? I am going to eat just chicken and salad for the rest of the day. See if that brings it down. But my nurse has told me to ear some carbs with every meal. I am just so confused. I live in the UK.
