Not feeling so hot

dragossoul84 · February 2014

I have GD I meet with the dr to go over everything in a couple days but right now I feel quite off. I cannot get a hold of the Dr and I was wondering if any of you GD mama's can tell me what I should be looking for.

Can't be of much help here, but just wanted to wish you well and send positive vibes in your direction.
I hope you get to feeling better!

thanks i just feel really wrong. My head hurts and I feel disorientated and sick to my stomach. I've got my son safe in his room napping I think I will just alert my husband and lay down until the Dr calls me back

What have you eaten recently? Anything with lots of carbs? I would suggest laying down and drinking water or eating ice chips. I have Type I, so I'm not really familiar with the specifics of GD, but when my blood sugar is high, I sometimes feel queasy and disoriented. I hope you feel better!

Dr got back to me yes I did eat a lot of carbs. I didnt know that was bad i haven't had my consultation yet. They told me exactly what you did Taylor I've got to flush it with water and wait it out. Thanks for the support

My best friend had it and told me it felt like she was on a caffeine high and would see sparkles when her blood sugar was off.

When my blood sugar is high I feel really bad. Usually like my heart is going to pound out of my chest and dizzy as well. Do you have a meter yet? Sometimes exercise can help bring it down as well. Or eating something high in protein low in carbs like boiled eggs or chicken. Hope you get to feeling better soon!

No meter yet probably won't get one until I meet with the GD Dr on the 25th. My MIL has an extra meter and I may borrow it until then

Good luck! I hope you feel better. In the meantime, if you have any Q's, feel free to hit me up. I may not know the answer but hopefully I can point you in the right direction.

Ugh. Sorry about the GD diagnosis. Hopefully you'll be able to make some adjustments so you will feel better.

Hope you start feeling better soon! Be careful with the carbs... dangerous little things.

Hope you're doing okay!

Hope you're feeling better! My grandpa has type 1 and taking a shot of apple cider vinegar before a meal helps his blood sugar not spike. His doc was actually the one who recommended it, so it's actually a legit thing.
