Default Appointment Today

Everything looked good. All my bloodwork came back good, and i gained 6 pounds, finally putting some weight on. Listend to baby's heartbeat, all that fun stuff. Sat in the waiting room for two hours. Had a long wait last time too, so thats annoying.

Talked to my doctor about how dizzy i've been feeling. I felt the same way last pregnancy, I can't stand up for more then a couple minutes, or walk very far without feeling like i'm going to pass out. He gave me the number of a cardiologist who i need to go see, just to be sure everything is fine. He didn't seem concerned though, so i'm choosing not to be either at this point. My appointment is next Friday.

I have to go in, probably tomorrow, for my glucose test. Not very excited about that, but ya gotta do what you gotta do.

I'm glad you're appointment went well. Could your dizzinies be due to low blood sugar?

Glad it was a good appt. I was thinking the same thing about low blood sugar. Also for me, if I don't eat some protein (eggs or meat or something) each day, I tend to get lightheaded.

I was like that really bad with DS. It turned out I had a slight arrythmea (sp?), and low BS. Arrythmea was nothing to worry about, and bs was corrected by orange juice. Hope you figure it out soon.

Glad you had a good appt. Hope you can figure out what is causing your dizziness. I know I have it some days too but it does not sound near as bad as that. Good luck and keep us posted

Yay for a good visit! Good luck at the one on Friday (oops, that's today!) I hope they can help you out w/ the dizzy/feeling like you'll faint.... Glad Dr. didn't seem worried, though.

I'm glad you had a good appt, but sorry your wait is so long, I keep forgetting to bring a book with me to help pass the time. Hope your glucose test goes well.

I guess it could be a blood sugar thing, but eating and drinking have no effect. I thought with a blood sugar thing eating would make me feel a little better? I'm not sure. The doctor said something about Arrythmea, thats why he wanted me to see the cardiologist.
