Good night,
I have launched myself to this forum because I am having a bad time.
I am 37 years old and never I have gone to the doctor until 3 years ago, where my medical journey began by chance.
I went to the doctor because I had a little gut pain that was not leaving (nothing that caught anyone's attention), and after much insist, I ended up diagnosed with Crohn.Since then I will have visited dozens of doctors looking for double, triple and quadruple opinions that tell me that I do not have what I have.The acceptance phase lasts a lot, although I have a very mild version (today), which does not even take any medication at this time (it is not always so).
This event completely changed my mind.A chronic disease changes your life.It is a reality.
The fact is that precisely following this disease, blood controls make me more continuously.Prior to this, I only have the analysis that they did at work annually, where basal glucose until 2017 was 8x and then an average of 9x in 2018 and 2019.
The first analysis where the high glucose jumped was at the end of 2020, when they reviewed me for the issue of Crohn, where it gave me 104 on an empty stomach.No one gave him more importance, unless they recommended me to make me a glycosilada in the next one.The next analytics (mid -2021) was not fasting, and measured the glycosilada first time.I do not remember exactly the value and I do not have access to those results, but I remember that it was a low value, approximately 4.6 or so.They told me then that I forgot because it was all perfectly.
At the end of 2021, another fasting analysis with 98 basal and 4.8 glycosilada.It seemed a lot to be the basal considering that I did it after more than 12 hours of fasting, but hey, the glycosilada was fine.Again they told me to forget.
The fact is that now, a couple of weeks ago, a new fasting analytics (14 hours) has given me 104 and 5.2 glycosilada.This result has made it enters a tremendous spiral of obsession, since glycosilada has been increasing since it was measured from the first time and now it had been fasting for 14 hours and even with those gave me 104!.This is not very normal.
I've been looking for information without stopping.Keep in mind that I went for a gut pain and far from being a simple gastroenteritis I returned with a crohn.This makes anything likely to be the worst.
Since I have myself - and also a family history - autoimmune diseases, I do nothing but think of DM 1 type lada.I do not see another response to having glucose in the limit at my age, being very thin (BMI of 20) and not consuming added sugars (I usually take everything "zero", although it is true that pasta and bread as much) and beingin physical form.
I have asked to do the antibody test (Gada, IAA, IA2, Ica) as well as a peptide analysis.They do not give me the results for up to 2 weeks and really that I am suffering a lot, because I find no other explanation to these values.
Fun to an endocrine (who asked me the antibodies), and told me that obviously the analysis values did not indicate a diabetes, but that he could not rule out that he had an incipient strain since the basal glucose has been increasingAnd I have a history of autoimmune diseases (none with diabetes).
I write this post as relief, because I do not think these fasting values are normal and I am terrified with the idea of suffering from DM1.You have to put in context that when I was diagnosed with Crohn was a shock of such proportions that gave a 180 degree turn in the way you live things.
Every day that passes I have worse, thinking that they will give the analyzes.WhileSo much, I bought a glucometer but it does not reach me until the weekend.When I have it I will see in detail the measurements.
Perhaps it may seem to you that the answer is exaggerated, but when you go to the doctor for a fully functional gut pain - and that I went because it was a "cognizage" more than a nuisance - and you go out with a chronic disease without healing, the tortazoIt is important.Now I simply do not see another explanation to these fasting glucose values other than a DM (I thought that stress could be, but the cortisol gave me inside the margin).
As a note, I emphasize that no medication the crohn affects sugar, and that even the first value of 104 had been taken without having taken any related medication.
Thank you all for your understanding.
