diabetic nurses working nights

Published

I started working nights about a year ago. Since then, I've felt absolutely miserable and have noticed a sharp increase in my hgba1c. Are there any other diabetic nurses out there working nights? Have you noticed that your blood sugars are impossible to control, too?

I work nights and my blood sugars are usually lower when I come home compared to what they are when I'm not working.I put it down to the intense exercise from 6 to 8!

My hba1c is also down.It depends if you are type one or two and what medications you are on.
