It's not Diabetes I guess..

Saturday I had my 2 hour glucose test and just got the results back.. Figures they'd tell me horrible results on Halloween of all days!!!!

She said that I'm considered diabetic with these numbers!!

So I'm going on Metformin as of this evening.
1 pill a day for 1st week.
2 pills a day for 2nd week.
3 pills a day for the 3rd week.

I'm meeting with the RE's Nutritionist (Let's hope she's on my insurance plan). I told the nurse I was already looking into the South Beach Diet and she was so happy. I was preparing for the worst and well.. This is it.

What is weird is that I did change my diet from 10 months ago. Dramatically changed it. Guess it wasn't good enough and actually made things worse.

Fasting Glucose 131
1 hr Glucose 251
2 hr Glucose 198

Fasting Insulin- 25
1 hr- 116
2 hr- 131- She told me I should of been 55 here.

So.. Metformin and a low carb diet for Dee.. I always lost on it before anything else. That should of been my hint, but I just couldn't stick to it and would cheat all the time. Now I have no choice. AND again I'm pissed off at my regular doctor because this could of been taken care of 10 months ago. Better late than never or TOO late and having my situation get worse.

So I have cancelled all my RE appointments since they are of no use to me and I will do all of these tests again next year.
