So, I'm diabetic.
I just got back from the doctor's, and I'm sort of confused. But basically, I'm going to be full-on diabetic within a few years, even if I continue eating on weight watchers the way I am. I just have to stay on weight watchers for life though.
I'm young so this is what happened: apparently my insulin levels are high, and my blood cells, esp in my pancreas aren't doing their job. So the insulin is heading to my ovaries, which are confused, but are performing the job of my pancreas, keeping me from exhibiting symtoms too much, other than weight gain and vision problems. And my ovaries aren't doing their jobs of ovulating. But the doctor gave me a pill to fix it, however, I'm going to be full-on in a few years, there's only so long I can hold it off. Diet and exercise will help, but the minute I get pregnant... I'm gonna get it. If I can get pregnant, which is actually looking better, after I spoke to my obgyn who says this means I should probably be able to, and may in fact be getting too pregnant..lol...i'm genetically predisposed to multiples apparently. woo
I think I need a nap. Or a hug.
