in a good mood actually... got to spend part of the day with my daughters doing important things like going and seeing Dragon Tales (and dragging aprofsold with me)
but back to the question at hand...
you did well...lol... glucose goes up for a multitude of reasons due to the stress response with alot of anti-insulin type of hormones being secreted... epinephrine, glucagon and especially cortisol. All promote gluconeogenesis and overwhelm a system that is already being overwhelmed on too many fronts.
