GLYBURIDE vs PIOGLITAZONE

I'm sorry, I fell off the face of the planet. Or at least reddit. The last month and a half were a clusterfuck of feeling hot and miserable, a bunch of stupid stuff at work, and my family driving me a little crazy. If you are reading this and you haven't told anyone about your pregnancy, please plea

I graduated this week! I didn’t have GD with my first pregnancy and went into spontaneous labor at 40w2d. Baby #1 was a non-medicated vaginal delivery and I really wanted the same for baby #2.

I had been having contractions on and off since 33 weeks, so we were all shocked when I made it to 39 weeks without a baby. However, I have an abundance of scar tissue due to surgeries for my cervical cancer, which were making it impossible for my cervix to dilate properly. As such, I was scheduled

Trigger warning: hypoglycemia, NICU, not positive I'm writing this post not because I want to remember all the details of our hospital stay, but that it might help someone else prepare for a potential NICU stay with realistic expectations, and know that you're not alone in all of this. This is my f

Charlotte was born on 7/15, a day after her grandma’s birthday. We were scheduled for an induction that day, due to arrive at the hospital at midnight. I had a rebellious placenta (AKA gestational diabetes), so an induction was something we had discussed weeks in advance, as a possibility. Given tha

I had my first stars event after 6 months of working at my store. I’ve been a licensed pharmacist for a little over a year. Basically the script was for glyburide and directions were supposed to say take by mouth twice daily with meals however it what was sent out as take mouth twice daily. Patient

First off, I'm on mobile so I apologize if this is annoying! Tl;dr: water broke at 31+4, admitted to L&D, now on hospital bedrest until further notice. Hella bored. I landed myself at L&D yesterday for the first time in my pregnancy. I'm currently 31+5 with a high risk mono-di twin girl pre

Was diagnosed type-2 on November 11th, which was the first day I tested. My very first test was above 280. I made a post here a few weeks ago that my highest was 380. After that, I made an aggressive change to my diet(Tuna mixes with veggies and a bit of cream cheese on low carb wraps are god like),

Hi I’m Rosa and I don’t know what I’m doing, Ok back story as concise as I can: -When I was 15 in was diagnosed with PCOS and was told that I would have insulin resistance because of it. -I was put on metformin to help with it but I can’t tolerate it, I’m constantly sick to my stomach on it -

I'm already down to 6.0. A 3.5% drop. Like I'm right at the cusp of being at the finish line (I know it's not the end, and that I have to stay there) of getting out of the "Complication Range" Went from a dangerous level down to the middle of Pre-diabetic in only 3 months. Also, my average, if going

I've been diabetic ever since I had my son 3 years ago. I'm the type that has no clue when my BS is running high; I can only ever tell when it's low, but that hasn't happened in a while. I know I need to get my shit together and work on reversing this but it's so hard. I'm not sure why it's so hard

On January 19 I was tested by my doctor and confirmed I was t2 diabetic with an a1c of 10.4. I just got my lab results from the blood test on April 21, that my a1c is now 5.3!!!!!!!
