Fluctuating fasting bg & allergies?


(Jan) #1

I’ve noticed that my fasting bg goes up when I catch a cold, or have an infection. That makes sense, it’s extra stress on your body, the body responds. But recently, with the onset of spring & allergy season, I’ve been seeing my fasting bg bounce around a bit. Was just wondering if anyone else has seen their bg respond to allergies in a similar way?
I am a recovered T2d, been Keto for a year and a half, fasting bg has been steadily around 80-90mg/dl for quite some time. About a month ago, it started dropping into the 70’s (woohoo!!!). Then things outside started blooming…And I’m varying between the upper 80’s and low 100’s.
No changes to diet, I’ve checked out my sweeteners (used minimally) for insulin & bg effects, even still using the same brands of food as before.
Is this possible?
