little background first before my question to help some...

i had to have major surgery on may 5th and was put on "DO NOTHING" for 6 weeks and than extended another 6 weeks. one of my two doctors released me to slowly return to normal life. the 2nd one i see on the 25th. so, doctor #1 puts me on VASICARE. i started taking it on thursday this past week. from what i read it takes 2/3 months for it to make a difference.

well, my reading have been really good. Saturday morning it was 83. i don't think i took it yesterday. been eating real good, (trying to take off the rest of my weight) this morning my reading was --185--. i have never, since DX in 06, had a reading this high. once i had a reading of 166. i can't do much of anything to exercise to bring it down. i can walk around some. i will test again in a little while.

so my question is:::::: does anyone know if vasicare can cause your sugar levels to go up????

thanks, chipper

Is it Vesicare? Check with your doctor if you notice any symptom that worries you. Please do this, Chipper.

Afraid I've never heard of Vesicare . . . here's a Yahoo Health article about Vesicare that seems to have some helpful information . . . http://health.yahoo.com/urinary-medi...-d05413a1.html . . . although there is no mention of any impact regarding blood glucose levels.

I definately agree with Ruth . . . call your doctor . . . or perhaps your pharmacist -- sometimes they have a lot more drug-related information than the doctors do.

Good Luck . . .
