@betty2020 you mentioned that your immune suppression medicine elevates your blood sugar. What immune suppression med are you on and why? You also mentioned taking prednisone and amlodipine. Prednisone and other steroids can also elevate blood sugar. What has prednisone been prescribed for? Make sure that the Dr. who prescribes these medications also knows that you are diabetic. Perhaps there are alternatives that won’t affect your blood pressure adversely. Have you noticed any changes since cutting your pills in half? What kind of changes has there been?
