Guest guest Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 I hadn't eaten for awhile when I had my labs done. This is the first time that my glucose had be out of range. He is going to have me do it fasting next time. One thing I have a huge problem with-fasting!!! I like 'tommy buttons'. Very cute!

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 Yes, Zanna, my potassium was okay in the complete metabolic panel done on 12/27-02. I like bananas but they don't like me I guess. Regarding the glucose, like SAB said, elevated can be from non-fasting or pred. Mine on that test above was 211 but it was only about 1 hr after I had eaten. Still doc wasn't happy so she did one of those H--- ones that measure your average over 3 months and it was just fine. My labs, unless they're fasting, always show high on the glucose. Cold (8º early this morning) and little snowy here---we're catching the side of the one that went down into OK and north TX chasing Teddi to Dallas. I wish we'd have 2 feet!!! Really I do. My new cat, Tommy Buttons (he likes to play with buttons on my tops), the former outdoor only cat, is now a bona fide house cat. I went into town earlier and he told me not to stay long cause he didn't want to stay outside long. Course he has a whole huge hay shed plus other outbuildings he can go into. But......he likes the wool blanket on my recliner but he shares the car nicely. Lelia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
