Hey all! I am what I think is type 2 diabetic and found out after being 8 months pregnant. Because I failed three test, and the level of the results, docs suspected I was diabetic prior to being pregnant.
Now funny thing, I've had so many blood test done and NONE of my doc's ever said anything about diabetes to me. I'm frustrated! I was on insulin, now off to try oral meds. Was on metformin- it made my hair fall out terribly so I stopped. Am now on Januvea however none have done any chanes to my sugar levels.
Since my baby, I've lost most of my weight with ten pounds to go. Pre baby I was 192 and now I'm down to 147. Doc said once I get back to my normal weight which is 130-135, my sugars may stabilize. Well, surprise, nothing's changed and I'm so depressed.
Im still trying to learn what works, using a food guide which is comparable to weight watchers, given to me by the diabetic counselor. Nothing seems to help and the only thing that did was the insulin ... Just not sure why doc isn't putting me back on it. My sugar level was 200 the other morning at fasting. Isn't that dangerous?????
Oh and btw, out of curiosity checked my medical records from 2009 and there were notes indicating that I am diabetic! WTF!!! Aren't docs supposed to tell you these important things????
