jrtpup replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"I had a shot at L4-5 last year. I did end up doubling my basal rate. Same thing with steroidal nasal spray for a sinus infection that wouldn't quit. The trick is keeping a really close eye so you don't wait too long to lower it.
Hope it…"
LaGuitariste replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"I don't have any rippling muscle to share, but if you need any extra body fat...?
(Not the kind of "bulk" you were hoping for, I know.)"
Michael McClure replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"Yep. Be careful -- don't go all out on the boluses. I think that could make for some hairy times a few hours out. That said, your body is different and could react quite differently to your short-acting insulin. Good that you came here and read…"
acidrock23 replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"I also did a lot of pushups. I asked the doc "will this stuff make me studly?" and he was like "oh no, it's not like that..." so I went home and looked them up and, since they were banned, I figured "what the…"
Tim replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"I had a steroid injection into my shoulder about 6 weeks ago. My doc and I had talked about the effect on bg and I looked for a rise in bg's and expected a rise in insulin needs... but didn't see any. Maybe my doc used a smaller dose or…"
LaGuitariste replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"Oh, dear. I hope you do OK. I had steroids injected into my shoulder capsule a few years back after a (slight/quick) dislocation. (Worst pain of my life, that darn shoulder.)
My blood glucose went through the roof.
Test, test, test and correct, eh?"
Michael McClure replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"Good luck today! I had a steroid shot in my hand several months ago (trigger finger, may or may not have been D-related -- I'm a systems guy so use my hands a LOT doing keyboard stuff; I've also been a guitar player for the past 39…"
acidrock23 replied to Jason Durbin's discussion 'Getting steroid injection today, blood sugar is going up!'"I had pills a couple of years ago, for a stubborn cough that lingered for like a month (2x bottles of codeine cough syrup, 1x bottle of vicodin cough syrup, LOTR+ Star Wars...) and doubled my basal rate to 200% the normal rate. I probably…"
