i am a non medical person but diabetic for the past 15 years. you need to be talking to your doctor preferably a specialist. however my experience says everything impacts your blood sugar. certainly the pain of arthritis and the stress of aches and pains can increase you blood sugar. it also can interfere with sleep which also can causes higher blood sugars. if you take anything prescription or over the counter for the arthritis it can leave you slightly dehydrated which can increase your blood sugar. any stress or illness can increase your blood sugar. if you haven't been diagnosed as diabetic get a check up. if you have been diagnosed get back to your doctor. good luck. .
can arthritis inflammation make my blood sugar higher?
