Avatar f tn I did and she says the only thing she can think of might be the fact that I was dig. with Diabetes after starting the Depo shot. I was on it for 9 years and went off it 2 years ago. My womanly cycles didn't start back up until 5 1/2 months ago when all the sickness started. She says they don't warn you that the shot can cause insulin resistance. So, did going off the shot reverse my insulin resistance?? Not sure but I am thinking so. Just thought I would share!!
229857 tn?1319029907 and i am now dealing with the gestational diabetes, and i DO watch what i eat...i have only gained 5lbs and i am 29w2d prego. So don't blame yourself....it happens for lots of reasons. If you fail your other one and need help with the adjustment we can help eachother....i dont know anyone else going through this, and i have only been testing and counting carbs and stuff for less then a week, but so far so good.
Avatar f tn Well today her nurse called me.. So my first reaction was omg! I have gestational diabetes, and she said no, your NEGATIVE for that, but your iron was low.. Thanking the man above always, so she told me to go pick up some iron pills and tame those with my prenatal pills..
315639 tn?1248349369 WOW! I'm holding my too-too for you! LOL At least he's a healthy size and you have some kind of end in site. Do you have gestational diabetes? Is there a reason they think he's measuring so big so early. Well if you insist on having a vaginal birth be sure and let them know so they can bring you in for that induction right away, b/c the longer he stays in there the more pounds he's going to put on! Get that bag ready lady! Good luck, and keep us updated!
Avatar m tn Update: this morning I had pancakes for breakfast within a half hour my bs was 141, if someone can give me some advice I'd really appreciate it, I really have myself worked up and scared about the swing in readings
8266573 tn?1403137275 s weird never felt that and I had just eaten 2 hours ago... so I went to my neighbors who has had gestational diabetes to check my sugar and it was 172 I know that's not normal but could I be developing it now and not 4 weeks ago I don't get it.. Has this happen to anyone?
10858973 tn?1416663532 s an update! last Tuesday on the 13th, my husband and i took our children to the farm show complex. while thete, we saw many animals, cows being shaved and milked, chickens hatching etc. well i began sneezing and coughing uncontrollable but put it off as allergies. The next morning I woke up drenched in sweat and my body ached horribly. I checked my fasting blood sugar and itwas 20!!!! (I got diagnosed with gestational diabetes about two weeks ago). Not only that i had ketones in my urine.
6519447 tn?1391770769 Got my results for the 3 hour glucose test and I don't have diabetes. Thank God! Its pretty scary wondering what if.
Avatar n tn My husband has been diagnosed recently with diabetes & is on oral medication at this time. Is it common to be placed on high blood pressure medication at the same time even though blood pressure is normal??? I am presuming as a preventative? I would appreciate any knowledge on this topic.
315639 tn?1248349369 Well you guys here is yet another update............... Was at the midwife yesterday and the little man has gone and done it again!! Last week i was measuring 39 weeks and yesterday i was measuring 41!!! Midwife thinks he has put on weight again!! So it looks like he will be heavier than the 9 and a half lbs that he was last week!! BUT on the upside due to the circumference of his head and shoulders its now gonna be a c-section for sure.
143123 tn?1274300825 This is just an update for people that have been following along with me in my journey I met with the doctor today. I have been dreading this day...originally supposed to have been April 16, but it got postponed to today. The doctor went over all of my results of the fertility tests that were done and they are all normal. My insulin is still a little elevated, but he said he can't tell me that is a reason for miscarriages. He also told me I for sure do not have PCOS.

15114787 tn?1438541373 Altered consciousness with only moderately high blood sugar may not necessarily be related to diabetes. The patient should probably be assessed for stroke, heart disease, UTI, infection, dehydration, etc.
1523195 tn?1291322372 I have recently noticed that I have diabetes , I'm 40+ years old , I measured my sugar level at home and it ranges from 270 -370 when I'm fast ( 8-12 hours without eating and drinking) and when I after eating it also ranges from 250-270 . I went to the doctor to make full body analysis for diabetes and the blood sugar level was 290 , he prescribed me two tablets / day of Glucophage 1000mg and one tablet / day of ACTOS 30mg.
Avatar f tn I was having mild contractions on my own 2-3 minutes apart. I am 38 weeks with gestational diabetes. Hope my baby is here soon.
Avatar n tn I recently heard a research update by the head of JDRF's research department who said the same thing. All my notes from that update are at home, though. I'll see if I can find it tonight.
Avatar f tn Update to my post of Dec 2018. Turns out Repatha has latex in the injector and I'm allergic to it. That probably caused the rash. Has anyone had this problem with Repatha or Praluent? I'd like to try Praluent.

279230 tn?1259923903 Hi everyone. Just an update on me. I'm 29 weeks. Had a dr's appointment yesterday to get results of bloodwork and my glucose test. I have gestational diabetes. My blood pressure is also still rising (160-90 yesterday). I also have low potassium and elevated creatine. He gave me a prescription for potassium and now I have to monitor blood sugar and blood pressure at home and be on a diabetic diet. I also have to see him once a week now.
