If the blood sugar is done on daily basis you can have one more injection of steroid.
The steroid injections can increase diabetes, so you have to be really careful and should tell your treating Doctor about your diabetes.
One injection is usually sufficient and you can have further injections if your blood sugar is normal and being monitored on a daily basis.
