Yesterdays appointment

1:00pm - Yesterday we met with the high risk diabetic doctor and also with the high risk blood pressure specialist, as my pressure has been up a little. Well, when they checked my pressure yesterday it was really high. :( Also, the diabetic doctor adjusted my insulin and changed which type I was taking. I also had a "mist" test done to determine if the blood pressure meds I am on were working. They decided to change my pressure medicine as well. They took blood to check my A1C and to check a few other things. They called today to tell me my A1C has gone up a few points, and that I now have subclinical hypothyroidism?!?!? I have never had any thyroid problems, and they said because I am pregnant I need to go on medication to help prevent miscarriage. I'm also hoping the new insulin I am on with help with my sugars better, AND I hope the new blood pressure medicine helps keep my blood pressure under control. :( We go back next Tuesday. We also have another vaginal ultrasound done Tuesday morning to check and see how the baby is doing. I also have to have an EKG done the same day, plus do a 24 hour urine test starting Monday.

So much going on, and i'm only in the beginning of pregnancy.....:(
