How Does RSD Affect Diabetes Mellitus?

i hand carpal tunnel surgery 6/25/14 and I have not done well. Today I was diagnoized with rsd. I have noticed my blood sugar has been climbing since I had the surgery and I have had to eat less, but it stills climbs. I am under Dr. care on metformin... How does the rsd affect the Dm and vice versa?
