Hello,

I am a newbie. My DD is 14 ,she has Hashimoto's (Thyroid). She weighs 91 lbs and is almost 5'7". very thin. I was too at that age. not on any medications....

She has been have spells lately . Like fainting/falling feeling.

I took her to out Ped. He did a random glucose test her numbers were 126.

I think that high (prediabetes) am I wrong??

My father-in-law had adult on set diabetes. So I'm a worried.

Please clue me in.......

*I think I should also mention... it just might be puberty...there are signs , it's just around the corner.


thank you for your time,

Az

Hello,

Thank you so much for the information. I am taking her to my Endocrinologist soon.

Her Ped. mentioned her TSH being up a little.

Knowing she has Hashimoto's I want to make sure my Endo., checks her out.

She was going to a Ped. Endo and he didn't put her on synthroid..... When I told my Dr. She couldn't believe she wasn't on ANY medication for it.

Again Thank you so much!!!!
