The effects of TOM on BG (a question for diabetic women)

texastigerlily · 10-24-2009, 04:45 AM

Since I've been LCing and checking my BG consistently, I have not had TOM. Well...he is due any second now. The last 3 days I've felt my emotions kick in, the bloating take over, and watched my morning BG sneak up. This morning my BG was 149. That's the highest it's been in almost two weeks since I got it under control. How much does TOM effect BG? Are there any little tricks to help keep your BG under control during TOM? As an aside, I started oral progesterone on Tuesday. I can't help but wonder if that has an effect as well.
