    Chances are, your blood sugar levels are high and your A1C levels have been elevated for some time as a result. It's not really anything to worry about unless you are pregnant. With the right medicine and a few changes to your diet, they will have everything back on track. My mother has diabetes and she sees an endocrinologist to keep her blood sugar levels on track.

    Also, if it's not about your blood sugar levels, it could be because of hormones. Just don't sweat it too much and keep us posted on what they say.

      Yeah, it sounds like something is just out of whack. It's always scary when nothing gets explained. I was sitting in a doctor's office on my 25th birthday when I found out I had a brain tumor. I seen my family doctor two days before that and he told me that he couldn't share anything with me and that I would have to wait to see a specialist. Regardless of what they tell you, you will always have a place to turn to. Even if it's just me here to hear you. I'm willing to be your friend and support group (or at least a part of your team anyhow). If you uncapitalized the"B" and add, you could email me directly.
