[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you testing her glucose? Does she already have a diagnosis of diabetes? What is her PMH? Medications? Any medications new?[/quote] We had her tested because there’s a strong family history of type 2 diabetes (it typically shows up in 20s). She hasn’t been diagnosed, but she’s been having episodes of excessive thirst that come and go. She’s also dealt with recurring yeast infections and swimmer’s ear that haven’t been resolving easily, random tingling and pains, and she is struggling to gain weight/loses easily, and often doesn’t feel hungry. Otherwise, she’s generally healthy with no diagnosed conditions. There is a family history on one side of type 2 diabetes, hyperthyroidism (parent had thyroidectomy), high cholesterol. At her last checkup, her cholesterol levels were excellent and her blood pressure was normal. She is not currently taking any medications. [/quote]
