I called Dr Nesbitt's office this morning because the hospital employee nurse suggested it after I tested 307 a couple of hours after eating and felt icky on Friday.

It's not surprising, really. I mean, I knew more than likely that I was diabetic, even without an official diagnosis. But as long as I could, I chocked it up to insulin resistance syndrome, and told myself that when I tested, it was usually just under the range normally considered diabetic, and so it wasn't too bad. As a result, I didn't really take it seriously. I think I've reached a point where I really do have to shed denial and make some changes in how I approach this.
