I’m 12 weeks PP after having GD and I had a glucose tolerance test last Monday which came back clear. On Friday of the same week I was rushed to A&E with severe vomiting, confusion , blurred vision and personality changes where I have no memory of anything that happened that evening in hospital at all. I spoke to the consultant the next morning on the ward round and he said to me it’s 90% chance being a hypo and that I needed to be tested in hospital for type 1 diabetes within the next 6 weeks. I am now still feeling very unwell and I’m so worried about having another hypo and I’m constantly monitoring my blood sugars that don’t seems to want to rise above 4.4. I’m very upset that nothing got picked up on my recent glucose test and that I had to go through this for my body to finally tell me something was wrong.
Has anyone else experienced this and what have people done in the lead up to having further glucose tests? I’m too scared to drive incase this happens again and I haven’t left the house in nearly a week because of this.
