Glucose test failed

Hi, can I check does anyone got a call from their nurse or hospital that their glucose test failed by alittle, asked to go for counselling and dietary planning with the nurse but did not go for those yet recovered on your own? Can share your plan and how u do it? As husband view it as minor issues hence does not wish me to go follow on those. So would need advise from anyone who did experience glucose failed but did not go for those but you managed to clear on your own please. #advicepls #pleasehelp

Hi, which hospital are u with? I’m with KKH and my 3rd glucose test failed by a little too. It was really borderline. But they made me go for counselling and appointment with dietician. Even had to get the blood glucose meter thing to test twice a week for gynae to review at next visit. My friend intro me to freelibre. Good thing is, you don’t need to prick your finger to test blood, But it’s so expensive and need to change every 2 weeks. Plus KKH don’t accept Freelibre, they claim it’s not as accurate. Anyway for someone with borderline failed glucose test, I thought my results will be fine. But my weekly blood glucose test was so bad that now they put me on medication for diabetes. 🥲 So you never know.. best to follow your gynae advise. If u do have GDM and it’s not managed properly, baby can grow to be very big and very hard to deliver.
