Is there a relationship between bg and blood pressure, ie, a high bg
results in bp to go up somewhat...just curious? And when bg goes back to
'normal,' does the bp drops to a normal range?

I have has both diabetes and hypertension for several years. In my case the
answer to your question is no, there is absolutely no relationship between
the two readings at all.
My blood pressure "jumps" all over the place, but my BG readings are
reasonably good and steady most of the time.
My doctor and home nurse have been trying to get my BP stable and after a
number of changes in the medicines and dosages, it seems they have finally
found the right combination at last.
