My mother has sugars 120/180 fbs/ppbs as of now. Some days its 135/200 She had covid first symptom on 4th April and recovered on 14th April. She was treated at home and had steroids for 5-6 days (deflazacort 12mg per day). Today is 37th day of her recovery. Is she in risk of mucormycosis? No symptoms, but she did dusting at home without mask by mistake, and I was worried. Are her sugar levels so high which make her prone to black fungus?

How much sugar post covid makes you prone to mucormycosis? Is there a number? The term uncontrolled diabetes is very vague.

My fater is 75 years old and living active life. On a daily basis, he walk around 7-8 km and he is diabetic from last 25 years. From last 20 years, he is taking only one medicine- Glimceed 2PM in morning and evening before 30 minutes of meal. Although, he is not monitoring his sugar level but Yesterday he checked his sugar level at home after 2 hours from breakfast and it was 332. It is tough to go hospital for consultation with doctor. Is it dangerous? Request to suggest for medicines.

Hello doc, My queries are : 1. Why all doctors stressing on diabetes at risk ??? 2. Why there are no black fungus cases in high sugar level patients earlier ??? 3. Will black fungus come in diabetic patients without history of covid ??? Or it will come due to high steroid usage in diabetic patients ??? 4. If a patient is diabetic without history of covid how much fbs and ppbs levels are to be maintained to reduce the risk of black fungus??? 5. Why earlier doctors are not stressed on diabetes risk to black fungus, but why now ??? Please give useful and relevant information with brief... Thank you...

People often say uncontrolled diabetics are at high risk of mucormycosis, but I could not find how much sugar level is called uncontrolled diabetes. In short, how much sugar level puts you at risk of mucormycosis? If you mean standard levels ir 100fbs/140 ppbs, then many people would've gotten mucormycosis even without covid.
