Tough situation, likely your illness is contributing to your hyperglycemia. With your weight loss and everything, I can see where your doc is coming from. Generally, in people with CF it's better to stick with a regular diet (or close to it)and cover with insulin. Do they have you on steroids as part of your tune up? Those can really screw with your BSG, esp in addition to being sick.
