Hi everyone
So glad to have found this forum. I was diagnosed with GD 2 weeks ago after the 28 week GTT. Initially I tried to control by diet but after a week of this when I saw the consultant my levels after meals were still high. I have been on insulin for the past 4 days. What I'm struggling with is I'm still following the advised diet but my levels are still high. I've been advised to increase the amount of insulin which I have done but they're still high. Even worse I'm hungry constantly :-(
Has anyone else had this problem or can offer any advice. I've still got 10 weeks to go and I'm feeling so down at the moment.
Thank you x
