Uncontrollable Diabetes with insulin
I was hospitalized due to being corona positive from 16 april to 10th may. In hospital they started giving me insulin which I never had earlier. Even after discharge they asked me to continue with insulin which I am continuing but even after insulin my sugar is not in control it is never coming below 350. I found the rason also there is steroid in my medicines. Which dose has been lessened by doctor now but still sugar is not coming down. I have all the other reports also like
CBC, CRP, LDH, Ferritin, ddimer, Lft, kft, serum Uric acid, FBS (Blood Sugar) and HbA1c, ESR, IL6
I want to share all the reports along with blood sugar report and insulin intake chart.
But how to do ?
Kindly help me .
