Got a call from my doctor's office yesterday-UPDATE

Of course, I left my cell phone in the car yesterday so I didn't get the message until 7pm when the office was closed. She said my blood results came back and to call her. I had the one hour glucose test and I think they also test for anemia. Anybody know what else they test for at that visit. I can call back in an hour....I'm hoping its just the sugar level or anemia and nothing more serious....Chat Icon

ETA: I love how she told me as she was taking my blood that "no call is good news"- so now I definitely know something came back off! Chat Icon

Update: I failed the glucose test- it was supposed to be under 139 and I was 165- so off to the three hour test I go! Chat Icon

Don't worry too much. The worst is that you may be anemic or need to take the 3 hour test. Either way, they aren't a big deal. Plus, the call could be good news. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I'm always the first to say... don't worry about these tests. I'm sure it's nothing major, if anything.

I swear, my mom's generation who was having babies in the 60's and 70's, had it easier in many ways. Half the time they didn't even they know they were pregnant for three months and then they got big and one day delivered. There weren't all of these tests, many of which have a high rate of false positives, to scare the heck out of them.

Everything is going to be fineChat Icon Chat Icon

If you did fail your glucose, its not really a big deal. You'll go for your 3 hour a most likely pass it. For some reason, this seems like a common thing.
I went yesterday for mine and am patiently waiting to hear my results. I'm already planning that I'll have to do the 3 hour next week. This is exactly what happened with my first DS.
So good luck! and keep us posted.Chat Icon Chat Icon

I agree, you probably failed the 1 hour, so many people do. I did, and past the 3 hour, a PITA but not really a big deal.

If you do fail I will help in any way I can. I had GD with my son and am now a diabetic.
