06-4-2009 - Update on GD test

My mood while writing this blog: frustrated!!!!!!!!!

So, I just called the doctor's office and talked to the nurse about the results of my GD test that I took on Friday, the three hour one. First of all that was the worst thing I have ever had to do!!!!!!

She said that the first draw (of the three that I had to have) was fine and the second and third were "slightly high". Well, first of all the lab timer was not working right, so those idiots ended up taking the second and third drawn 5 to 10 minutes late, second of all nobody told me that I had to fast before, because they are indiots and although I didn't eat anything after 8:30 the night before, that wasn't the full 12 hours, and finally, what the HECK, if they had simply told me to fast before the first test I probably wouldn't be going through this right now!!!!!!

Anyway, so, the nurse said that they would likely have me see a dietician, just to be on the safe side because I am likely borderline. But before they can be sure the results have to be reviewed by the doctor. What the heck is borderline? So, I have to eat crap for the next three months because they didn't take the draws at the right time and I might be borderline?!?

I am so frustrated, I can only hope that maybe I will get an additional ultrasound, because when my sister had this she got to have a couple extra, to be sure of the size of the baby. I guess that would make it worth eating diet crap for the next three months, but it better be at least two or three more "peeks" at my little guy!!!!!

I wish those of you that haven't gone yet the best of luck. I also suggest that you don't eat anything for three days before :o)
