Question

Do diabetics experience blood sugar fluctuations during a cold?

Answer

If diabetics catch a cold, it may have some effect on blood sugar levels. It is recommended not to adjust the dosage of antidiabetic medication based on the blood sugar levels during this period. Guidance: Due to the relatively low immunity of diabetics, catching a cold can easily lead to bacterial and viral infections, thereby affecting blood sugar control. I suggest you pay special attention to this. I hope my answer can be helpful to you, and wish you good health and happiness. Doctor’s Inquiry:
