My daughter had her tonsils removed last month. Before that, most of the time, her blood sugar was below 200 mg/dl [11.1 mmol/L]. After the surgery, we had to give her lot of pain relievers that caused high blood sugars. We treated the highs with insulin shots. She don’t have any more pain associated with the surgery, but her blood sugar seems to be always high. Is there any reason for this?
