Hi! My name is Natasha and I am 26 years old, turning 27 this year. I am very overweight with a BMI of 37 (92kg, 160cm tall) I am from Stockholm, Sweden and have been literally freaking out because of diabetes. This is so scary that it has effected me mentally and my day to day. I gave birth 5 months ago to my first born and had gestational diabetes put on insulin during my pregnancy.
After he was born my numbers went down and I didnt need insulin anymore. I recently tested and my fasting have been elevated around 6.0 sometimes goes down to 5.6, 5.5 but most 5.8-6.0. I had an A1c end of november which came out being 5.3% so not even in the prediabetic area but since my fasting has been elevated I am very scared. Im going to the gym and trying to lose weight.
It has impacted me so bad that I am meeting a psychologist. I just need some calming words because this is making me so depressed and sick and I am so scared that I dont even wanna eat
