That is my concern too. De developed diabetes from it. That was when she had the bite that infected and turned into a flesh eating virus. The doctor knew she had a high blood sugar reading and said he was not concerned. By the time she was admited for the infection her sugar was over 500.

She was on insulin a month after they stopped it, I guess the infection kept the reading high too.

If on this med, I think a weekly blood sugar should be done and watch for symptoms.
I would tell the doctor she always had a drink in her hand and two nearby, no matter where we went. She would also hit every water fountain.

I gave up on the sleep phobic, three of us here have a plan for one to be awake while the other sleeps, that at least gives me 5 hrs in a row sleep;
