Diabetes

Hi ladies! So I had gestational diabetes during pregnancy that was diet controlled. I never had any follow up after delivery. Fast forward to now I previously ran out of glucose test strips so I wasn’t testing my sugars and I thought it would just go away after delivery. So I found a few test strips that I didn’t know I had and took days of fasting blood sugars and one was 106 and the other was 112. Which I know should be under 100. I guess I’m just freaking out a bit now because those are prediabetic numbers and I don’t want to have diabetes. I’m literally sitting here crying because this isn’t an emergency so I’m not going to make a dr appt about this during these crazy times. Its just all the unknown that is weighing on my shoulders.

I really would just like to hear from any of you in the same boat who may have a similar situation to share with me. NO BASHING plz and thank you. Stay safe ladies & thanks for reading!
