Blood sugar out of control

[roxnlox]

I am on day 4 and for about 48 hours have had unusually high blood sugars. I am a type 2 diabetic with A1c of 6.1 and my sugars usually run 90 - 140. The last few days I am 190 - 250 and feeling like crap! I have no appetite when my glucose is this high. Fortunately I am doing the whole30 with my daughter so she keeps cooking for me so I can eat a little. The first few days I was very low carb, but have tried adding back some small amounts of sweet potatoes and fruit. I feel a little better now but the high blood sugars are scaring me. I have been off gluten grains and legumes for several years so really just giving up dairy and some 75-85% chocolate. Any thoughts? I am also having some increased anxiety and depression but at least I know how to handle that.

I'm Type 1, it happens to me as well for a few days after I start eating less carbs. I think it's just your body dumping its glycogen stores. Once they're depleted, your blood sugars should normalise. Usually takes about a week for me, so just wait it out for a little while. Upping your exercise over the next few days will also help the stores get used up faster by helping your muscles take up that extra glucose in your blood. Hope things even out soon!
