Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Hi All! It has been a while since I have posted, the last time was to let everyone know that I am having a baby. I have been feeling great pancreas wise, just dealing with the nausea of pregnancy and all the hormone changes have made me a little moody...lol. I have been able to keep up on the posts though. I do have a question. My perinatologist did some lab work. One he ordered was the one hour glucose, where I had to drink the orange drink then wait one hour and do blood work. Well, apparently normal would have been 130 and I was 152. I know that isn't deathly high, but is it high for a diabetic? Am I making sense? Now he wants to do a 3 hour glucose test, this will tell more he said. He and I had discussed the higher chance of me becoming diabetic since I do have CP and have had a partial distal. But so soon??? I am only 3 months pregnant. I am scared. I was thinking the diabetes would come in later in the pregnancy like 6 month or something. Will I immediately have to go on insulin or will it be diet controlled? I know I should have asked the doctor these questions but I always am in such a shock when they give me disturbing news. I do see him again on the 8th but I was hoping to get input from you all. Any comments would be appreciated. I hope everyone is doing well. Sending lots of happy thoughts your way......
