I had another quick appt. on Friday. After looking at the information from the lab, the doctor said he walked in prepared to start me on some "oral agents" to control high blood sugar. He said that I would be the first that he had put on oral agents...and he said that being the first is never a good thing.
However, he looked at my week of journaling and decided to wait one more week. The numbers that I am getting are elevated...but they aren't extremely high. He said since I am such a compliant patient that he will let me try to control this through diet. So for now...bye-bye bread...and pasta...and cookies...and anything else that tastes good!
So far, I have gained 9 pounds, and my blood pressure is fine. We heard the heartbeat, and then I was dismissed for another week. Next appt: Monday, April 26th.
