HbA1C has worsened from the previous level and the current readings are high. Monkey bite by itself doesn’t affect sugars. Medications such as steroids ( oral or injectable) that may have been prescribed after a bite can elevated sugars.

The sugar levels are high. U need to consult a Diabetologist with details of ur current medicines and get a fresh prescription. There is nothing specific about monkey bite but any kind of stress on body can lead to high sugar levels
