Diabetes

after you have a baby? I had gestational diabetes when I was pregnant, but I don't know what the sugar levels are after you have the baby. I want to keep checking my sugar levels but what are the regular numbers? Does anyone know?

im 16 and my doctor thinks i am hypoglycemic. i have to go back tommorow to get a glucose tolerance test? im really nervous. i have never really had anything wrong with me before and come from a healthy family so what would cause me to become hypoglycemic? would it be because i eat unhealthy. i eat a lot of sweet and salty foods. i am going to start eating healthy from now on though. im just really scared i dont like getting my blood drawn or anything like that. i dont even know what this test is?? what will they do and how long will it take? does it hurt? sorry im just nervous, i dont like going to the doctor.

Ive heard diabetic people lose the ability to sense temperature and touch with their feet/hands due to nerve damage. Would they still be able to move their fingers or toes?

I was recently diagnosed type 2 diabetic.
The other day My blood sugar count was 6.9 just before I went to bed (a little high) and when I got up next morning after complete fast it was 7.5.
Should it do that if I hadn't eaten ? and why would it do that?

I have type 2 Diabetes and Hypothyroidism. My doctor said that when my thyroid is under control, my type 2 diabetes should go away...anyone heard of this?

I am on Novorapid and Levimir and I am finding these too erratic. Either there is a very long delay in reducing sugar levels in my blood, and then there is a crash, or other days I am crashing four or five times a day. I have no warning. One minute I can be fine, next minute nearly passing out at 1.4!

When I asked the nurse (doctor is rarely there) she just says, well, you might be allergic to animal insulin! I was put on the "human insulin" almost 6 months after my diagnosis and have had trouble with it ever since, but there is nothing "human" about it.

Discussed it with pharmasist again and again who says it should not continue like this and that I should talk to GP/Nurse/Consultant, but none will talk about it.

I feel like giving up insulin altogether, but having done that in the past I know the consequences!

After having a GTT on saturday I got my results today! Doc says I have Impaired Glucose Tolerance!

Does anyone know what this means for me? I'm so scared of becoming a diabetic! Doc has started me on 2 x 500mg tabs of met per day. I have a lot of weight to shift! And it's all just a bit daunting at the moment!

What should I avoid eating? What should I be eating? Will I deffinately go on the have diabetes? I also have PCOS!

Thanks!
