I went to my primary dr today for irritation- I thought the yeast infection I'd been treated for last week hadn't completely gone away. So she checks my urine and says the sugar is high and so I'm to do a fasting glucose this week. She also did an internal gyn. exam and said all looked normal except had I ever had herpes! She scraped a bit for a sample and said she'd call if either one came back abnormal. I think I know what spot she was referring to because I've noticed it but its been the same. Nothing new or old or changing. I know I've been feeling blah blood-sugar-wise the last several months. I've put on 30 pounds at least since sept. 2006 when I went on Depakote. I really hope this is all nothing. I've had the same sexual partner for coming up on 3 years.

Hoping everything comes back normal.

Thanks. (This is me too- my cookies for this site are always messed up. lol) I am not really worried about herpes, but the blood sugar thing is a little worrisome. :-/

ETA, it has to be a fasting blood test and I'm going to do it tomorrow morning- but I'm STARVING now! I guess this is showing me how much I DO eat, huh?

The dr's office called and said everything was "negative'- i.e. I don't have diabetes or herpes. Well- days of worry for nothing! I do, however, have a nice cold that I've self-diagnosed.

Well after a failed treatment for yeast, NOW they're treating me for BV. (Bacterial vaginosis.) A pill. A week's worth- one pill twice a day. I hope this clears it up. Why couldn't they figure this out BEFORE? I was the one had to call and say "Here are my symptoms, I think its...." and voila- script. I do feel some better even after only one day on them. (Except for the usual antibiotic side effects!)
