Hello! My name is Michelle. I have been having a rough couple of months. Im so tired, hungry, and crabby. I figured it was my thyoid and after months I just HAD to go to the Dr. So i made an appt. and he checked that and a few more things. After I was home and they called with the results, they said they go with a sugar cut off of 99 and mine was 115. They want me to take the glucose test tomorrow. By their standards they say Im prediabetic at this point. I was tested 3 times for gestational, and the last one was normal, so they said i was ok. Now here we are again. After some research of my own, this coul also be reason for my numbness in hands at odd times. I have this "Crashing" problem at work, and after sitting a minut and getting a bite to eat Im ok. Now heres a question. I have to fast tonight for the morning test. What happens if I would crash and cant eat? What can I do to make the evening go smoothly? They said I wouldnt need an appt, just blood draw, but after they heard other symptoms I having a hard time dealing with, they want an appointment. The whole thing kinda worries me. Any insight?

Please call your dr or the place where the test will be done and ask them what you are too do to avoid crashing or what you should do if you do!
