Good question Melody. I was told by my doctor to drink water since it will help to get out some of the sugar and to stay with a normal routine of daily things since excercising causes the body to stress, which as you know stress raises blood sugar. If on insulin take some fast acting insulin to help bring it down. Check for keytones if blood sugar is above 200, which if you are showing keytones call your doctor right away and if it is above 200 you really should call your doctor to find out what you need to do since they are the ones who are suppose to be experts.


This is all the things my doctor has told me, but I do know that each doctor has their own set standards on things so I would say talk this very subject over with your doctor to see what they suggest. I really hope you don't have any high blood sugars, but it does happen to some of us every now and again. Take care and have a super fun filled day!
