You and your endocrinologist should have covered sick day protocol.
If you don't have an endo- get one. Diabetes is not the job of a GP.
Monitor your sugar often, it may go up due to the infection even though you have not eaten much.
Adjust your medication accordingly, drink lots of liquids and it is just fine to take most OTC medications to make you feel better.

Feel better soon
