Diabetes Blood Sugar Testing? |
I have all of the symptoms of diabetes, but I checked my blood sugar twice today, and the first was about an hour after I woke up, and it was exactly 100. Then, about 2 hours after i ate a small bag of chips and it was 87. The thing is, the symptoms are all there! Like i'm always thirsty, but it goes like straight though me. like i urinate allllll the time. and i get realllllllly tired after I eat (on top of constant fatigue) I am small, fifteen years old, and have a family history. Well, look at it this way: you are feeling off and you suspect that something is wrong, and you need a blood test from a doctor to really be diagnosed. So you might as well get a doctor's appointment and let the professionals find out what's wrong. The symptoms you have are pretty vague and they don't necessarily mean diabetes. I mean, no offense but you would have those symptoms if you're pregnant for example! Any quick photo glucose testing won't show many if any problems. Go to a doctor to get checked out. Read all the information you can about managing the condition. Blood sugar conditions can be managed by eating healthy foods. Check out my source link for tons more information. why dont you go get checked? if its in your family history, you might be carrying the gene! get checked, its the safest way- dont put it off any longer Next time you go to your doctors, ask them to be screened. They will have you fast for 8-12 hours and then draw blood for a glucose. If that's abnormal they will probably do what's called a glucose tolerance test. I'm sure you could probably even asked to do just the glucose tolerance test if you're really worried. What they will do is basically make you fast, and then give you a really, really sweet drink called "glucola" I know.. creepy name for a creepy drink! Most pregnant women have to do this if their glucose fasting is abnormal to check for gestational diabetes.. but anyways, then what they will do is take your glucose very hour for 3 to 5 hours, depending on what the doctor wants. It is a tedious test, because you have to stay at the lab until it's done, but it will really nip the idea of diabetes if all the glucose results come out normal and if they come out abnormal, then you probably are a diabetic. |
