Hi again. Finally a week and a day after my husband had his fasting test the Dr called. Unfortunately I was in the shower and I didn't know about the call until it was over so I didn't get to ask questions. The glucose results were "suspicious" so they are having him tested again tomorrow after fasting tonight. I told my husband to find out the actual numbers... so hopefully he will. I took the info I found on the ivillage article called "Diabetes Mellitus" about diagnosing and levels. He is an engineer so I'm thinking the number side of this might get his attention.

Thanks for all your encouragement! I will let you know what we find out next.

Thank you so much Sharon for getting back to us about your husbands result, because we have been thinking of you both. I hope to hear good news and not a bad one when you get the results from this fasting blood test. How ever if you do get not so good of one you can always count on us for some support, answers to those questions in your minds, and a place to just get some great information. We are all here for both of you when you need us. Take good care of each other and have a wonderful day!

Sharon,


In the last folder on this board there is an article posted by the name of (approximately) Diabetes and the family. Read it. It has wonderful accurate information in it. There are also web resources that we can give you when we find out what your husband's diagnosis is.
