Stress and anxiety and raise cortisol. Cortisol raises blood sugar. So yes I believe that is why your blood sugar might have been a bit high.

What was the exact number? How long before did you eat food and what did you eat?

Sounds like you need to talk to your doctor or to a nutritionist to find out what you need to be eating to help you with your illness.
Once you have this sorted you will find anxiety etc will be much easier to deal with, and may result from just the worry of thinking something wrong and not knowing what it is.
Hope the forum helps you - lots of kind help and support, and people who understand.
