@KatieEl@lmmjd@burnsmommy27 Thanks for the support guys I called my OB's office right back and they said they'd check with the OB to see where else I could go. I'm waiting to hear back now, but if I don't I plan on taking a few days worth of blood sugar readings to my appointment on Thursday to discuss it and hopefully get a referral to a different Endo at least by then.
@gilsam1 I totally agree with you and PPs, that seems so long and almost ridiculous that they make you wait til mid-December when you're due the next month! I hope you're able to get a referral. Hugs!
Finally successfully got my 1 hour test done today. Doc says I should be getting the results tomorrow, either by a phone call and/or through the Patient Portal website thing. I'm a little nervous, but not too worried. And if i fail and then fail the 3 hour, having to change my diet some for a couple months isn't the worst thing in the world, anyway. And DH would most likely become the Food Nazi to make sure I'm not splurging too much
@gilsam1 Hang in there, girl! Hope you get an earlier appt and I think you're doing the right thing by monitoring and bringing some data points with. Hope you get some support and/or answers.
Took my 1hr test on Friday and it came back 148 out of 140. *Apparently my Dr.'s office goes by 140* ugh, so now on to the 3 hour test. Prayers I don't get sick. I am borderline anemic too hence the dizziness, seeing spots, and losing balance in the shower.
Had an email in the Patient Portal waiting for me when i woke up. My doctor's office goes up to level 130 for glucose, and they said that my levels were "normal." I kind of want to know what the actual number is, out of curiosity.
They also said I'm anemic, so i just got back from getting some supplement pills, yuck. probably should've picked up some Colace while i was at the pharmacy!
@britmanering73 I'm sorry, best of luck on the 3 hour! I also failed the 1hr with a 142. Ended up passing the 3 hour, but felt so rough that day. They let me lay down in between blood draws which definitely helped, so maybe take them up on that's if it's something they offer!
I'm kind of annoyed. I took the test Wednesday and they told me results would be in today or Monday. I called today and she said, Yup, I see them here but I can't tell you what they say. We only have one provider and she will be calling you this afternoon. No call.
I failed the 1 hour with DD and "passed" the 3 hour at the practice I was at but it was high enough that I could have been considered to have failed at other practices (133).
I just want to know what to do and make a plan because I am all type A.
Ugh failed the 1 hr...got 156 needed below 140. Going for the 3 hr on Friday, which kinda sucks because it's my day off but is kinda good since I don't have to take any extra time off at work... Trying to tell myself it's not terrible especially considering I've only gained like 12 lbs so far and the us Tuesday showed the kid wasn't huge...
@caseyw8784 Thanks for checking in! I heard back from them yesterday, and I passed the 1 hour this time! I am tempted to complain about the wait, Friday-Tuesday is like 5 million years in waiting for pregnancy results.
Here we go for the 3 hr round! Fruit punch this time and I have to say it tasted like cough syrup...kinda gross. I didn't mind the orange but this one was worse.
I took a 2 glucose test on my day off a few weeks ago i guess i passed since my doctor didnt say anything about it. I had to fast the day before and my son waa not happy about that.

@leeeahyo thank you, maybe I will ask them if they'll go ahead and let me LOL
@schaze I have to pick up the order this Friday and take it sometime next week. I'm dreading not being able to eat for 11 hours!
