dear sir I can understand your concern.
usually during infection there will be increased requirement of insulin and your sugars go up
I suggest to meet your doc and consider insulin dose adjustment as insulin will help to fight better with infection.
remember good sugar control is important along with antibiotics for quick control of infection
