I have the Dexcom 6 that I wear but during this flare up my sugars are going crazy high. I haven't had high sugars like this is some time now. Just wondering if anyone else experienced the same thing

Sugar levels will be very unstable it will go up πŸ“ˆ and through the roof and it can actually put them into very dangerous conditions
I am fitted with a type 2 libre system and it has the sensors that attach to the back of my arm and it shows me everything I need to know on a graph πŸ“‰ πŸ˜πŸ‘
πŸ‘‡ there you go this is what I mean it’s slightly high at the moment not by much 0.2 to be exact πŸ˜πŸ‘‡

😁 yes i am type 2 diabetic and on insulin as well πŸ€” and yes when your HS starts to play up blood sugar levels will be very unstable πŸ€” also antibiotics will have a effect on your blood sugar levels from my experience and the infection will as well 😁
