Stress or strong emotions leads to release of corticosteroids from our adrenal glands and also adrenaline, which leads to immediate rush of glucose in our blood. Thus there is rise in blood pressure and sugar levels in our blood.

Strong emotions may increase blood pressure and pulse but not by very much and not enough to cause a concern. Strong emotions most certainly do not elevate glucose (sugar) levels. Prolonged stress however may lead to temporary elevations in glucose but again not enough to cause a concern.
