Stress hyperglycemia
High blood sugar, also known as hyperglycemia, is a condition where the level of sugar in the blood exceeds the normal limits. This persistent state is characteristic of diabetes mellitus, a condition associated with insulin, a hormone that helps regulate blood sugar levels within the normal range.
Occasionally, individuals who do not have diabetes may experience temporary hyperglycemia, often due to stress. When a person is under stress, their body responds in various ways, including releasing stress hormones such as cortisol, growth hormone, and catecholamines. These hormones counteract the effects of insulin, leading to elevated blood sugar levels to provide energy. If blood sugar is measured during a stressful event, it may be higher than normal, a condition known as stress hyperglycemia. Once the stress subsides, blood sugar levels typically return to normal.
