Cold, flu, trancazo, etc ... Does it cause insulin resistance?Little uncontrolled?

Hello everyone.

Right now I am cold as anyone, but what is happening to me does not understand, the lack of control has been brutal in glucose levels ...

At breakfast levels like any other day and at eating have 350!When I have had the same thing and put the same amount of insulin.

Last night there was no way to lower insulin and click such amounts to have had quite low glucose and not only not low, but it remained that way.

I have been like that several days and at all hours, clicking many more insulin units to try to stabilize everything, like this, 40% more insulin per day.Crazy.

My question is as follows.When you are colds, glucose levels are out of control and insulin does not make the same effect or is it almost null?

Thank you!

Each one is a world.I am now with a trancazo and it has not been out of control.Although I had to increase basal by reducing physical exercise.And then it depends if you have a fever.More controls and you run according to see.

@rpk7, the same thing happens to me.No colds, but flu cause me difficult to get off 200 basal.Increase slow days of the flu, but carefully because the day I start cureing I can have descents.

As you have told you here, more controls and correction between food hours until you are better.

I will do that, I see that I am not the only one that happens.
