Ashley J asked:


Diabetic patients who have surgery, become sick, or are under other physiological stress are told to monitor their blood sugar carefully because they may need to increase their insulin dose temporarily. What is the physiological explanation behind this advice?

I’m not sure how much exercise would also be considered too much. I’ve heard and read some recommend an exercise of 3 times a week. Would exercising daily be too much? I think other people leading active lifestyles have no problem with daily physical activity. Is it possible for a diabetic to still build up their muscles? Or would their condition make it a little more difficult for them?
