Blood sugar fine before game, but after 35 minutes of basketball & and a temper flare up near the end of the game, my level was 185. why so high?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Increased metabolism: Severe exertion and extreme stress increases the metabolic activity in muscles and other tissues resulting in an increased glucose in blood circulation in order to give those tissues more energy and help in continued activity if necessary.
