Well I finally got in with the Endo doc today at last. Well they want to do more test; they are going to do a fasting test on Monday morning. I have to stop eating after Lunch on Sunday they said no dinner on Sunday nigh only water. Well the last couple of days from some reason I have had a 286 and a 240,167,243 what the heck im Hypoglycemic so that’s does not make sence.The 240 was about 1 ½ hours after a small turkey sandwich.

Julie,


Finally you may get some answers as to what is your actual diagnosis. At least I hope so. You had better have a large lunch on Sunday as you are going to be mighty hungry Monday morning. I do find it strange that you aren't to have any dinner on Sunday. If you are "dawning" they certainly should see it Monday morning. Do watch your blood sugar and I hope it doesn't go too low Sunday evening.


I am really curious as to what the results are going to be because I think I know you diagnosis but we will wait and see. So make sure you post the results as soon as you know them. You have had such a rough couple of months and hopefully things will begin to turn around.


Is you husband doing better at getting his diabetes under control? I am hopeful that he is doing better. When did he get his last A1C done?


A gentle hug,

Mary Frances

Mary Frances things are going a little better for my husband. He has had some really good readings in the 130's i really think it has to do with the Aloe Vera. But on the down side a test they did to see how well his kidneys are working came back very bad.Also at that same time they did a A1C again and it was very high over 300.I wouldlove for them to re check in 2 more months after he has been on the Aloe Vera for 3 months to see if its really working. He has to go see a kidney specialist so that worries me. I’m worried that i might get a bad low on Sunday due to not eating for so long, i will eat a really big lunch on Sunday to try to hold me over. I’m such a small eater and i really have to be hungry to eat i just know Sunday will come and im notgoing to be hungry at lunch time. I have never heard of not eating dinner, i eat dinner early also around 6pm but they still said no. Im just curious what do you think the diagnosis may be? They said that the results will be back in 1 week. Thank you for getting back to me and that was also very sweet of you to ask how my husband is doing.

I am so glad to hear that you finally got in to see the Endocrinologist who I sure hope will help you find out what is going on since I do know how that can drive a person insane. At least you will have a diagnosis when you get your fasting results come back, which

Julie;


Hooray! And I am gald you survived waiting for the test. I am really going to stick my neck out. I think you are a type 1 diabetic in the honeymoon period. I don't think you are a type 2 because you are so thin. Now I hope I am wrong so lets see what the results are.


Aniously waiting for your results,

Mary Frances

i called this morning to see if they have any results or an idea when they would. The girl told me that my blood is still there and that it has not been sent out yet.The doctor that says what test needs to be done is out of town for a couple more days.So much for getting a rush on it.
