Uncontrolled Diabetes
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?

Uncontrolled blood sugars and use of steroids increases risk of mucor mycosis. You should be watchful for any symptoms and visit a doctor if needed
