My Dr. just called me and said that my blood results came back and I have impaired glucose tolerance ... meaning ... Im a prediabetic .. WTH. That doesnt even run in my family .. I eat healthy and workout all the time, Im not overweight or anything ... She said not to panic and we will address everything after the wedding but thats scary ...

Re: Um.
Could you have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)? I have this and it puts me at higher risk for glucose intolerance. I was taking metformin for a while for it but now I'm just keeping a strict diet to watch my sugar... and it does make you likely to get diabetes. You could tell if you have some irregular cycles and some other things... FM me if you want to talk more but figured I'd throw that out there since it's unusual.

I'm so sorry! Did you eat anything high in carbs or sugar before the test? Try not to stress until you talk to her again after the wedding.

Re: Um.
I have the same thing, except I have to monitor and take meds. It hasn't impacted my life negatively in any way and I feel great now that I was diagnosed and am taking the proper steps.

Re: Um.
this might help so don't worry too much: they've lowered the scale of who is pre-diabetic and who is not. my relatives in the medical field are all healthy and they've been complaining about that new scale because their suddenly all pre-diabetic too!
