Avatar n tn Best of luck with your pregnancy! Being diabetic and having gone through a similar experience I would highly recommend leveraging a diabetic educator, exploring the possibility of a continuous glucose monitoring device and/or using an insulin pump during pregnancy. I used all of the above for my pregnancy and really had great luck with keeping things in check (HBA1C's between 5.
Avatar f tn Or was this test of protein and glucose in urine from a regular non pregnancy exam?
Avatar n tn Does diabetes run in your family? It does in mine so I asked to take the glucose test at 4 weeks since I had it gestational diabetes with sll my pregnancy... I gained alot.of weight when my glucose wasnt managed...
Avatar n tn There are several ways you can diagnose diabetes. Your level last night after one cup of soda is more representative of a random blood glucose. A random glucose of >200mg/dL with symptoms of diabetes is diagnostic of Type 2 Diabetes. Therefore, from that one measure, you do not have Type 2 Diabetes. However, your fasting sugar is within the pre-diabetic range. Are you pregnant? You posted in the gestation diabetes section which is diabetes within pregnancy. Hope that helps!
Avatar f tn From my last 3 appts I've been having sugar in urine, I was sent to do the 3 hr glucose test and came back negative, but why would I keep getting sugar in urine? Anyone else the same?
Avatar f tn Du you guys have had ur glucose text with ur second pregnancy? And when do U have it? Isnt it befor week 20? Am pregnant with my second but havent goten an apoitment for it.

Avatar f tn I had it with my first pregnancy and have had my glucose tolerance test today for this pregnancy..if you test positive you will have to stick to a strict diet..manage your weight. Test your blood a few times a day..you will see a dietician or diabetic team..you have to write each blood sugar result down and the diabetic team look over it every few weeks. If you cant control it via diet..you'll.be offered metformin or.maybe insulin.

Avatar m tn In the morning, I feel shaky and dizzy...
Avatar n tn I am a type 1 diabetic since childhood and I have two healthy children. If a diabetic woman keeps her glucose levels tightly controlled, pregnancy is usually uneventful. Any risks would be if you let your glucose levels go high and remain high.
Avatar n tn today on testing my urine about 30 mins after 250ml of coke and 3 sweet biscuits there was NO glucose in the urine. Can anyone explain why the first test was positive?
Avatar f tn I've done the glucose test 3 times already du to having sugar in urine, and it has been negative!
Avatar f tn So I failed my 1 hour glucose test and I had to go back in and take the 3 hour. I was so anxious, nervous and I had all these crazy thoughts going through my head. Finally I recieved a phone call and thank god I passed... :) So happy!!! Im just ready to finish out this pregnancy and meet my baby boy. I have almost 10 weeks to go.
Avatar n tn the doctor has told me b.s have to be in normal range if not i will be put on insulin for my pregnancy and then after birth i can stop and continue diet control again,but i am worried if my body gets used to insulin how will i manage without it .and also how safe is it in pregnancy and are there any side effect s,i am thinking now should i not have any more children i am so confused and stressed out i am sacred to turn on the blood suger machine in case i get i high reading .thankyou.
Avatar f tn The doctor said I had glucose in my urine. She is going to retest me again in 2 weeks. I went in 2 weeks ago for the sugar test and passed with a 131 cutoff is 135. So my question is has this happened to anyone else? Does this mean I am going to develop gestational diabetes?? I am not over weight but I do have a bad ice cream habit...been known to eat a pint of ben and jerrys a nite!!! Any input would be appericated..thanxs!!
Avatar f tn what does it mean if i have diabetes during pregnancy? Will it affect my baby? Am i high risk pregnancy now?
Avatar f tn my dr did one in the begining and one towards the end..
Avatar n tn It can take some time for you to feel OK as your body adjusts to new glucose levels as being normal again. So if you test and find that your glucose numbers are in the ideal range (70-126) before meals but still feel crummy, you may just have to wait for your body to adjust to being normal again.
Avatar n tn As other causes such as stress ,exercises and a recent meal intake may cause increase levels of glucose in the urine. This may be true in isolated cases. An initial work up may be necessary just to check blood glucose levels. Your BUN and Creatinine levels may also be checked to get a baseline evaluation of renal function.
Avatar f tn I'm 16 weeks pregnant and I'm at my appt, I was just told that glucose was found in my urine! What does it mean?? Could it be because this morning I had cereal for breakfast?? Im scared to have gd!
Avatar f tn Its not healthy in pregnancy just like diabetes
Avatar n tn Both of these dangers are directly related to high blood sugar levels which can damage small blood vessels that supply the uterus, and so diabetics are encouraged to get very tight control over their glucose levels during pregnancy. This protects both mom and baby. When I was pregnant, I was told that the optimum goal was to never have the glucose readings go above 150 at about 2-3 hours after a meal.
Avatar n tn Usually it is later but if they have detected sugar in your routine urine test or had gd in a previous pregnancy some drs will test early.
