@memybumpandi, I have to go see a specialist & were planning on managing with diet. Have to check sugar 4x daily now.. I’ve always had low blood sugar 😔 I’m worried now. I hope we can manage it! We have to test for pre-eclampsia too because I have some(most) symptoms & doctor said I’m higher risk for it since gd diagnosis..
Don’t panic, I’m managing mine with diet too and testing four times a day. I know preeclampsia is more than BP but if you manage to control your diet you might dodge it. Either way at least you’re on their radar.
The diet, really opens your eyes to the amount of sugar there is in food and the “danger of carbs” in my two weeks I have learnt that pasta is the devil LOL! Small amounts if need be, like kiddie portions. I have just cut it out. Rice, small portions!! Accompany everything with LOTS of salad and veg to balance things out.

Proteins and greens are best oh and soups!!

Ps cook everything yourself so you can manage salt and sugar in take.
