  Diabetes is hyperglycemia, low blood sugar is hypoglycemic. I have both in my family. lmao. fortunately, having low blood sugar could be a one time fluke (I had one morning where I had all the symptoms of low blood sugar, and called my doc's office, who had me call L&D, and they told me to eat some protein and see if it improved. it did and I haven't had an issue since that day)

  Fortunately, if the second test shows that, the treatment is to eat more frequently.

  I have had hypoglycemia since I was in my early 20's.  I was diagnosed through a 6 hour glucose tolerance test after I fained at work.  It is way better than having diabetes because you don't have to do daily blood tests or take medicine.  It is controlled by diet.  Just eating more doesn't help me.  You have to make sure that you have enough protein and stay away from high sugar food.  I always keep peanut butter crackers in my purse and desk just in case I get low.

  I did ask how it would affect a pregnancy after I was diagnosed and my OB told me that it would not.  I asked again during my fertility treatments and my OB told me that she was not concerned about it unless I develop GD.
