Why am I high?

When you were tripling your insulin due to your thyroid was your thyroid high or low? I have read that hyperthyroid=high and hypothyroid=lower blood sugar BUT I had higher blood sugar when I was hypothyroid so just wondering what your scenario was…

I am hypo and had high blood sugar like you. Now that my thyroid is about where it should be, my BS has returned back to normal and I have also decreased the amount of insulin I was using.

I have increased my basal rates for the cooler weather. I added about 30% for my overnight basal - that one seemed to need the biggest adjustment and just a slighter adjustment for the daytime ones.

Thats good to know! As my blood sugar has been climbing and I am very tired, slow pulse, low blood pressure, cold etc so I’m pretty sure I have gone hypo again. Thanks for the info :slight_smile:

Hopefully you can get that taken care of soon - I know what it feels like!
