Hi
My daughter received a phone call from the hospital yesterday with regards to a fasting blood test she had a few days before. The nurse said she was diabetic her glucose levels were really high and she as to return to hospital on Monday for more tests.
I've been type 2 for 5 years so have the bs testing kit. So today we've kept a diary of my daughter's bs
I will try and keep this short as possible x
14.1 on waking (10am)
Drank a bottle of water
She didn't have breakfast but had lunch around 12, (with Apple crumble pudding)
Before lunch 14.9, +2 hours after finishing lunch was 20.2
Before tea 15.5 again +2 hours after 17.4.
Checked then approx 3 hours after this (No more food eaten) and they were 13.4
Drink wise she's drank water all day.
Really worried and cant sleep, my bs have never been this high.
My brother and his daughter are both type 1. There's also a lot of family members with type 2
Angry at myself for missing the symptoms, she's been very tired, mood swings, drinking a lot.
With bs like this is it safe to wait til Monday? Or should I take her sooner?
She's 20 years old
