Like the title says, it's another gestational diabetes thread. I got the call from my doctor today that my blood sugar was above 200. 215 or 250 or something like that, I was in such shock that I honestly don't remember the exact number, just that it was well over 200. I guess this is just one of those rant threads. Thinking back at the sweets I had, all the hot chocolate to help me sleep, the baking we have done..
I am an emotional wreck. It doesn't help that I almost started the stove on fire today and ruined 2 dozen cookies along with our plastic cookie holder.. Hubby thought it was a good idea to hide them in the stove and not tell me, I go to start the oven to make him lunch/dinner and well.. you can guess the rest. Then as we are arguing over who's fault it was a neighbor comes up and tells me that "people are eventually going to get sick of hearing it." The arguing, that is. Today has been a horrible day and I have been crying ever since the oven incident. I can't eat or drink I'm so upset over everything and especially now I'm so afraid to even put anything in my mouth for fear it's going to make my blood sugars spike
After reading Pixelles GD thread I now see all the symptoms, the excessive tiredness, constantly thirsty, dizziness, etc. It all comes together. I am waiting for the dietitian to call me, which I am going to guess it will be tomorrow since she hasn't called today, to see what will happen. I will probably be put on a diet, then insulin if that doesn't work. I am so worried and so distraught. I LOVE food and all the food I love I now can't have. The carbs, the chocolate, oj, etc. 
Sorry this was long, just looking to vent about it. I don't mind a read and run just needed to get it out there. Thanks for reading it.
