I had a glucose tolerance test today. It was not fun, of course, but I did get to read in peace for 2 hours, which was nice! I don't know the results yet, obviously, but I go to my endocrinologist on the 10th to see what the next step will be. I don't think the meds I have been on have worked and there are possible natural supplements I can try which I'm not sure how I feel about since I would like another baby one of these days, so for now I will just wait to see what my doctors say and go from there. I've been a lot better about my diet lately and when doing some research, found that apples are the best fruits for diabetics (this is awesome b/c I love apples) and it is actually a misconception that diabetics can't have sugar, it is more about the carbohydrates (this is awesome b/c if you know me, you know I LOVE sweets). So if I'm really good about having a salad or something really low carb for lunch, I can have a cookie/piece of king cake! I'm so sad, I know!
Thankfully I'm not diabetic YET so hopefully, living like one can prevent me from becoming one. We'll see what happens in a few weeks. In the mean time, I'll try to just hope for the best.
