High sugar count does it affect alzheimers

[cheryl k]

Hi everyone

I have a question -- Has anyone seen their loved one have a harder time with their alzheimer;s when their sugar count is high?

The other week my Dad had a cold which effected his sugar count --- very high --- and Dad seemed to have a harder time with his alzheimer's. He seemed extra confused and bewildered. He no longer has his cold, sugar count is under control and Dad seems totally with it-- coherent, forms his words better and can look you in the eye when having a conversation.

Would appreciate any feedback.

Thanks everyone

Cheryl

Yes my husband is always more confused when his blood sugar is high this has been discussed a few times on here but I can't find it anywhere at the moment I will have a look in the morning if you would like me to ,

infection of any sort can make dementia symptoms worse If I get a cold or urine infection I struggle a lot more with my thought processes and I also get left side weakness too
