Blood Sugar up with Bronchiectasis.

There is a connection between infection and A1C going up. I mentioned that to my Pulmo and he said that was true. My A1C is in the pre diabetic range close to diabetic and I have chronic Pseudomonas and BE. I also crash after eating meals and have so many indicators of diabetes and yet they tell me my A1C is not high enough to have diabetic symptoms. I believe the effects of the chronic infection on blood sugar are causing symptoms even with a pre diabetic range. If I can tolerate some treatment, I bet my blood sugar would become more stable.

Hi Irene-
Interesting ....and thank you for the info on A1C per what you learned and what the doctor said.
My recent test did show high hemoglobin...16.4.... meaning .4 points into high. My understanding is that dehydration can send it high. Have you heard that? I do have a long history of dehydration but am doing better with taking in liquids now, especially with knowing how it helps in all ways, including BE/Mucus.
