Newbie with a stress question
I seem to recall my endo or dietician or diabetes trainer… one of
them… telling me that stress affects your sugar levels. Makes sense.
Body gets tense, burn more sugar… right? Just curious of those that
have had this for a while what their experience is in high-stress
situations. Do you test more often? Eat a tad extra to get a little
higher?
Reason for asking? Well, I’m in the I/T industry. Almost 20 years. In
the last year I’ve had 5 different jobs, everyone of them has had
layoffs. I survived them all, including another last Friday. I don’t
totally freak out about them, but they do add stress. More now that
the thought of losing insurance is a bad thought.
Thanks for your replies.

Stress makes Sydney’s numbers go up…testing, bad dreams, fights with her sisters, and then she drops….
