Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.
First, the sugars are probably higher due to steroids.
I think the dose of medicines for sugars will need to be stepped up.
The tablet may be taken thrice a day at least.
Is it possible to reduce the steroidal dose?
Best of luck. Dr Mittal
