IGT

IGT = Impaired Gluclose Tolerance

Yay! I don't have gestational diabetes (GD) but I do have IGT. Which is basically is on the pathway to GD. I just have to keep my blood sugars under control. I do get the priveledge of pricking my finger 4 times a day to monitor my sugars. I am also on a modified diet. I went back for the one week later appt and met with the nurse and dietician again, but also a DR this time. My sugars all seem to be under control but the Dr did warn me that as I continue in this pg my blood sugars will continue to rise.

All in all I really don't mind the modified diet and taking my blood sugars as long as I don't have to take insulin.
