Leigh, good luck for tomorrow. I sure it will be gone, I try to look at the GD disaster as a glimpse into a possible future - one that I need to do my best to avoid!!!
Thanks Artechim. I need to look at it as a wake up call too, but I haven't really been eating the best lately (with xmas and everything), think thats why I am nervous it wont have gone away.
Good luck for tomorrow Leigh - I'm crossing my fingers for you that it will be fine.
I also haven't done my either (no-one has referred me lol!), but I have tested my BSL's a few time and they were fine! Given they diagnosed me off BSL's and not the actual GTT, I figure good BSL's are a pretty fair indicator!
Belfie - I've checked a few of my bsl's at home too and theyve been fine. The only reason I am going is that my diabetes educator has organised a meeting on the 25th Feb with the girls from my diabetes group to catch up and I know she'll crack up if I go to the meeting and say that I haven't done the test yet. I keep thinking I could put if off a bit longer but I think the longer I leave it the more nervous I will be. I'll let you all know how I get on. Wonder when I'll get the results back.
Well I was brave and went for my follow up GTT. My GP will have the results tomorrow so I will either ring up tomorrow or Saturday for the results - thats if I am game enough to ring haha.
Hope everyone is doing well and GD isnt getting you down!!!
I'll let you know once I get the results
so im into day 2 with usung insulin. but i have just have protaphane for 2 nights not using it with insulin with meaols yet. and my bsl's have gone ballistic!!!!
befroe insulin my first reading was around 6.5 and staying between there and 8.5 for the rest of the day... but now with the long acting night dose my levels are 10 to 12 first off and then swinging from 3.9 -13 throughout the day.
i rang the clinic and they said give it a few more days to settle down. Did this happen to anyone else when starting out on the insulin?
also, had a growth scan yesterday and measurements put me around 2.5 weeks ahead of where i am already. dont completely trust scans for this info as they have been wrong for me before ( not too sure about the operator too...???) but while i am not freaking yet, my concern level had risen a couple of notches this week.
Myson, as I said in the other post my bubs is measuring 2 weeks ahead as well..... But ultrasounds can be up to 500g out, therefore if it is out by that much it would put me back into the normal ranges for bubs gestational age...... if that makes any sense at all!!!
Leigh, I'm sure all will be fine...... Especially if your BSL's have been good post pregnancy....
