It's official. I have type 2 :(

Blood work came back. Now I get to meet with the diabetic nurse on April fools day. I wish it were a joke.

Oh but I'm totally wallowing. I'm typing this in a bubble bath with a drink in hand. H understands.

Oh no! I'm so sorry Did they determine that it's because of your meds? Are you sleeping any better these days? Ugh, you've been carrying too, too much.

Sleeping better so that's a plus. Not meds most likely. Grr. I LOVE chocolate. I deserve some retail therapy at least right?

[bostonmichelle]

I'm sorry. At least you are sleeping. I agree that you deserve retail therapy at this point.

[drloretta]

Yes to retail therapy and sleep. Boo to Type 2

[rikki]

Oh sweetie. I am so sorry. I am glad that you finally have some sort of diagnosis though an I hope that you start to feel much better very soon!

[les]

I'm so sorry. I hope you and the nurse can come up with a plan that involves the least negative impact to your lifestyle and results in you feeling much better.

I think wallowing and retail therapy are well deserved. I was diagnosed as pre-diabetic in December. It is still sinking in. I am happy to report that my drink of choice, vodka and soda water, seems to have no impact on my blood sugar so at least that is something.

Oh D, I am so sorry You totally deserve to wallow now.

[noodleoo]

I'm doubting it will work. I had GD both pregnancies so know the drill. As soon as I suspected I began testing and altered my diet appropriately. Still running high. But who knows. Maybe it'll be a different story in two months though.
