Anyone have Type II Diabetes and still pass their 3 hour Glucose?

Question

I had gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with my daughter 4 years ago. I found out I have developed Type II last summer. I am currently 26 weeks pregnant and already went through the glucose 1 hour and 3 hour testing early on in my pregnancy, around 13 weeks or so. I failed the 1 hour, and passed the 3 hour with flying colors. I go this friday for my 3 hour test. My doctor told me to just skip over the 1 hour and straight to the 3 hour. My regular numbers that i've been taking with my meter have been extremely high. Has anyone passed their 3 hour test with having Type II? I'm afraid that this is going to be Gestational Diabetes again. I'm finding it harder and harder to control my sugar levels the further I get into my pregnancy. I had my Type II under total control before I got pregnant.

Answer 1

What is the point of taking the 3 hour test if you know you are type 2 diabetes already? You just need to follow the strict diabetic diet for GD patients.

Answer 2

It looks as though you are hypoglycemic. Which means your sugar is low. A normal test would have given you a reading of somewhere between 80 & 120. I don't know what you had to drink, but even at that an hour later when another test was done your blood sugar level was only 86. As you can see after 2 and 3 hours it really fell. Yes by all means you should call your doctor. Do you eat much? How much do you weigh? Are you a very active person? Do you ever get gittery? Are you wanting to get pregnant? You are all right .The doctor will probably tell you to eat more small meals often just to keep up your blood sugar level. I have worked with a lot of older diabetics because I am a geriatric nurse. You seem young. Is there a reason for having this test done? Your AcuCheck, blood sugar test, is OK in the 80's , but with most people their accu check tends to increase over time, where your's is falling. Thats why I am thinking you are not eating enough. And eat quality food. Not junk food. Ask questions. Lots and lots of questions. None are too dumb.

Answer 3

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.

I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.

I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

Answer 4

I failed my 1 hour test, but I had already had Type II for 10 years before having Gastric Bypass surgery, but when I get pregnant I have to either go on insulin or Glyburide (Glyburide can't be used in first trimester)
