[QUOTE="Stronggirlsclub, post: 1748784, member: 471833"] Hello everyone, My husband and I have been trying for a baby for the past 2 years without any joy. Last week I saw a practice nurse to begin some fertility investigations. This morning she called to tell me that she suspects I have diabetes and PCOS and that I had a HBA1C of 105mmol. I know this is incredibly high, and whilst the official diagnosis won’t come until I’ve had my second blood test in 2 weeks time, I am confident that I will get this diagnosis. Ive worked within the diabetes research for the last 10 years, so this diagnosis is horribly ironic. It also means that I know a lot about the biochemistry of the disease but nothing about the day to day management. My concerns right now are that I am approaching my 33rd birthday and really feel like my biological clock is ticking. I know that it’s not safe to conceive with BG that high so the immediate focus for me is to drop weight (current BMI 32.5) and work on my blood sugar. Is there anyone who has been in this position? Can anyone offer any words of comfort? I really wasn’t expecting this. [/QUOTE]
