I got a call from my doctor that a fasting blood sugar was high (127) and that it might indicate I have diabetes. IT really shocks me because there is no history in my family. He did say that it would need to be confirmed by a second fasting blood sugar.
My question is, the day before the test, I baked cookies with my kids and I ate way too many of them. And the night before the test, I went out to dinner - chinese food buffet and ate way more than I normally do. So over all the day before, my diet was way out of whack with what I normally eat. Way too many cookies, chinese food and lots, and I even drank a large coke at dinner and I rarely drink soda. I have not been to a buffet in years, its definately not a regular thing.
I had finished eating around 10pm and the blood test was at 9am. I did not realize the doctor would do the test. It was just a routine physical.
Is there a change it was a false reading due to the amount of food I ate? Could my body just have gone so haywire from the extra carbs/sugar thats whyt he level was high?
I am just going to eat my normal way and make sure the day before the test to not overeat or over due it and hopefully the second test will be normal (under 100).
Am I fooling myself and I probably have type II diabetes? Or is there a chance I don't have it and I just screwed up the results with my day before eating?
I am really panicking and this is something that has thrown me for a loop. I have not told anyone but have been crying a lot about it in private.
