Questions about fasting numbers and possible insulin need
Sooo I’m 28 weeks and was diagnosed just over a week ago. So far my fasting sugars have been really high as well as almost every other number throughout the day. Thankfully they usually come down for dinner.
- Can my high fasting reading be affecting my high readings the rest of the day?
- At what point do they try medicine for the fasting levels?
I feel like I’m at such a loss. I have tried high protein snacks at bedtime and in the middle of the night. I’ve tried a more carb filled snack in the middle of the night(which did reduce my fasting a little but it was still at 111.). I had gd in my last pregnancy but it was so easily diet controlled that I had no problems. This time unless I’m eating a bowl of ice cream, I have high sugar. I’m struggling for sure and I feel sick when my sugars are high and I can’t keep my eyes open, even if my 1 hour is only like 145.
Thank you.
