Guest guest Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 A couple of weeks ago I was unexpectedly put in a police cell as a result of sticking up for my right to independent legal representation, following a false accusation by someone with a personal history of fabrications. In the course of a scary day's incarceration, a police doctor forced me to agree to a blood sugar test, which resulted in a reading of 10.7. This, she alleged, was 'twice the norm,' and denied that stress and the denial of adequate liquid (I was allowed just one meal and two cups of liquid from first thing to 2pm) were relevant factors here. My brother, who is type 1 diabetic, disagrees with the notion that a reading of 10.7 is 'twice the norm,' saying that 7 is the norm. My own local GP also disagrees with the notion that stress is irrelevant, and has sent me for further tests since my release on police bail. But he has refused to support my suggestion that denial of liquid could result in a high blood sugar reading, which to me still seems a common sense likelihood. Any thoughts?

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Dear Richard do you live in UK? I feel really so sorry for the uninformed souls. Yes stress will increase the Blood sugar readings. Stress causes increased sugar production. Reduced water intake will cause increase in B.P, increase in cholestrol, increase wbc counts and increase in sugar.
