Well, as some of you no I was getting tested for diabetes in the last week or so. Today it has been confirmed that I do have type 2 diabetes. I have to go in for some more tests tomorrow. I guess they need to check my creatinine levels and my hemoglobin levels. These are just 2 of the many tests for tomorrow. I have been prescribed Metformin which is the most common pill for diabetics. I will have to take this for a month and monitor my sugar levels 4 times a day and write them down. After 2 weeks the doctor wants me to go in for a check up to see if the dose of Metformin is balancing my sugar levels. If not he will have to adjust the dose. I mentioned to him that my mom who is also diabetic took Metformin and had a reaction to it so he told me to let him no as soon as I feel any discomforts or reactions once I have started taking it and I can change it to Actos.
I just wanted to update everyone. I will update again as to how my life is changing due to the diabetes. I am not saying that my life will change drastically. I have to go to a Diabetic clinic now and will see a nutritionist. So now I have no excuse but to eat healthy and keep my aqua fit going.
