The past week has been terrible on my blood sugars. I'm scared that I have/had another ovarian cyst. It seems to be pointing in that direction, or else my insulin and whole life has gone bad.

 

For about a week, my blood sugars have been high to no avail (well, about 3 numbers below 185 in 5 days). I've been stuck in the 200-260 range and I'm incredibly frustrated. Because it seems like there is nothing that I can do about it.
