So I failed my 3 hour test a couple of weeks ago. The day after my test I went to urgent care and they put me on antibiotics for bronchitis and sinus infection. I met with the dietician and she seemed to think my sugars were high due to being sick.

So my doctor had my A1C drawn and it was 5.2. It was also 5.2 back in April. I’ve been testing blood 4x a day for a week. My fasting numbers are always below 80 and my “one hour after meals” numbers are always below 120. I’ve made zero changes to my diet. I also tested for two weeks right after I failed my 1 hour test (I was leaving town and they didn’t have time to schedule the 3 hour) and all of those numbers were the same as above.

One of the doctors at my clinic (not my regular OB...we rotate through all the doctors during third trimester so we meet everyone) said my daily numbers are just a fluke and to give it more time and I’ll see them go up. ???

How can my 4x day testing be a fluke? And my A1C is normal? Can I ask them to look at it again? If I have GD, then I do, but if I really don’t, this testing 4x a day is for the birds. 😔
