Any one have there glucose rise with lyme?
Yes.
Anything from 100 to 125 fasting glucose in the US is considered pre-diabetic, but the A1c test tells more accurate recent history.
As far as being concerned about
it really depends how elevated it is, for how long, what foods do this, if you can control it with eliminating certain foods, your age and if you have known autoimmune conditions.
Over reacting adrenals and high anxiety also have a DIRECT influence on elevating blood sugar, this is why HOLY BASIL can lower glucose in people under stress, this is a fact.
Cortisol hormone is what triggers the liver to release more sugar into your blood for energy (to escape the saber tooth tiger). When we clearly dont need this added glucose in our blood, its harmful and can over work / tire out the pancreases producing inadequate beta cells that are needed for insulin release. Without insulin our tissue cells cannot accept and use the extra glucose.
