I just got my lab results in the patient portal. I have had slightly elevated glucose and A1C levels for about 18 months. I dropped my A1C to a good level in the fall and he didn't order a repeat of that. But I got my fasting glucose results and I'm diabetic. My glucose was still just over normal but he had told me that I couldn't keep sliding. So I guess I'm enjoying carbs from now until I see him next week.
I'm so sad. I have worked so hard and lost a lot of weight (which stopped when I needed Seroquel) and have exercised and I still didn't fix this. With my family history combined with APs this was very likely but I hoped to delay it longer.
Oh, and my meds keep me numb enough I can't cry which is all I really want to do right now.
This sucks.
