Hi,
From my own understanding, the hyperglyemia often comes from a combination of effects from the catecholamine surge, possibly co-production of cortisol from the tumor(not common), and also from some insulin resistance associated with this disorder.
If you find other information I would be very interested to hear about this also.
Take care.
