Glucose Test

As expected, I did NOT pass my last 3-hour glucose test. Boo! Luckily by the time they told me I only have five weeks left to deal with all these rules.

My doctor referred me to a diabetes center to get some meal recommendations as well as a glucose monitor to check my blood sugar levels FOUR TIMES A DAY! :(

They checked my blood sugar while I was at the diabetes center and everything came back very normal, not elevated at all, but they still had concerns.

Since that visit Friday I've had mixed results with the sugar levels. Sometimes its normal, sometimes its way too high. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what works, even when eating what they've recommended.

But, I'm optimistic. Today, the first three readings have all been where they should be. A few more minutes before I test it one last time for the day. Here's hoping for four normal results in one day. That hasn't happened yet!
