I think I might be diabetic...
| Wed, 01-23-2008 - 2:07pm |
Hi,
I had a baby 6 mths ago. During my pregnancy, I had gestational diabetes. I was on insullin. After having the baby I was told to have my diabetes checked at about 2 or 3 months post partum. I never bothered. I thought I'd loose weight. I never bothered with that either. For a couple of weeks now, I've been extremely tired and I have dry mouth. I just took my blood sugar level with the finger prick test and it said 11.7. Is that high? I think so, eh? Could someone give me a hint? Thank you!

Hi Tracie and welcome to the board.
Hi Tracy,
You really wanted that test to be under 6, I am afraid. So I am glad that you are calling your doctor. Please let us know what you find out.
