Diabetic cat update
I successfully jabbed my cat in the ear today hard enough to draw blood. Woohoo!(?) The patient was pretty chill about the whole thing.
Today I was supposed to do Tico's first insulin injection* -- but first I was supposed to test his blood glucose level. That involved rubbing his ear a bunch to improve circulation, then putting some vaseline on the outside of his ear (to move the fur out of the way and also get the blood to pool), then stabbing with a lancet (using a cotton ball on the other side of the ear to provide backing and then sop up extra blood). I found this video the most helpful in figuring out how to find the vein and draw blood: Home blood glucose testing for your cat
It took me an hour to read the AlphaTrak glucose monitor manual and watch videos to figure out what I was doing... and then another half an hour to prep Tico's ear and work up the nerve to stab it. My first tentative stab had no noticeable effect, but my second resulted in enough blood for the testing device to successfully detect his blood glucose levels.
Tico was a complete champ the whole time and only flinched mildly and let out a small complaining grumble when I drew blood. He didn't try to leave the sofa, despite the unusual ear rubbing and the stabbing. He got lots of his favorite reward ("the BRUSH!").
It turns out his blood glucose level is only 250, and the vet said not to give him insulin unless it was 300 or above without talking to her more first. So I'm awaiting her return call, and that means we probably have a reprieve of a couple more days before I have start the insulin shots. But after figuring out the ear stab, I think the insulin stab (in the scruff) will be relatively easy. Yay!
*I expected to be giving him insulin well before this. But Tico has only just now started reliably eating enough food at mealtimes that the vet told us we could safely try to give him insulin without risking insulin shock. It's been a long journey from free feeding to getting him eating a substantial portion 2x a day, and it feels like a great victory that we've finally managed that. However, I do still have to sit with the cats during meals and watch to see how much Tico is eating, because I haven't been able to get my new SureFeed feeders to control which cats eats which food yet. (My cats are SO SCARED when the feeder lids detect their proximity and move that we're progressing through the training stages verrrrry slowwwwwly.... weirdly, Bennet is the bravest, and the only one who didn't go on hunger strike when I briefly tried making the feeder lids move enough to cover half the bowls). We'll get there eventually. And I'll also try again to switch Tico to wet food at some point soonish, but that's another change that caused him to get very stressed and hide when I tried before. Making sure Tico is eating is the biggest priority.
Thanks to all who have given me encouragement and shared related experiences! <3

So in a good news/less good news thing, I might have found out the cause of the Unexpected Floor Time! I got my blood test results back and my sodium was on the very very low end of normal. Still technically in the normal range, but very not normal for me, so my issue may have been that this week I am more sodium Georg than usual???? I mean I do have salt wasting syndrome but also I eat so much salt every day and I am on medication to help me retain salt better (fludrocortisone! it's great!) So anyway that's why I have not got much crafting done this week. I've been extremely tired and unsalted lol Oh wait the good/less good format! Okay so good news is might have an answer and it's not any of the worse options, less good news is that I need more damn salt lol
#the person behind the yarn#HOW how am I low on salt#I eat SO MUCH SALT and I take salt pills!#how am I an unsalted potato chip of a person???#I don't even know what I meant by that but I am leaving it in because it made me laugh#also: my glucose continues to be in the fasting range when I am very much not fasting#and like. I had to see a different doc than usual so I could be seen faster#and I mentioned I was prone to low blood sugar#and he was like 'Why? None of the medications you are on cause low blood sugar'#and it was like. dude. sometimes people have low blood sugar! not sure what to tell you!#I keep testing in the fasting range when not fasting!#my lowest blood sugar at the doctor's office in the last year was 79! I was not fasting#in fact I'd had a whole gatorade right before walking into the office#anyway I'll be fine I'll just take more salt pills and snack more frequently but uggghhhhh

Understanding Different Types of Diabetes and Their Impact on the Body
Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It disrupts the body's ability to regulate blood sugar (glucose) levels, leading to serious health complications if not managed properly. There are several types of diabetes, each with unique characteristics and impacts on the body. This article will explore the different types of diabetes, how they affect the body, and the tests provided by RML Pathology to diagnose and manage this condition.
1. Type 1 Diabetes
Description:
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. This results in little to no insulin production, which is essential for regulating blood sugar levels.
Impact on the Body:
Requires lifelong insulin therapy.
Increases the risk of complications such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a potentially life-threatening condition.
Long-term complications include cardiovascular disease, kidney damage (nephropathy), nerve damage (neuropathy), and vision problems (retinopathy).
Can cause frequent urination, excessive thirst, extreme hunger, weight loss, fatigue, and irritability.
2. Type 2 Diabetes
Description:
Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. It occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin or when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin. Lifestyle factors such as obesity, poor diet, and lack of exercise significantly contribute to its development.
Impact on the Body:
Often managed with lifestyle changes, oral medications, and sometimes insulin.
Can lead to complications like heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, eye problems, and nerve damage.
Symptoms include increased thirst, frequent urination, increased hunger, fatigue, blurred vision, slow-healing sores, and frequent infections.
3. Gestational Diabetes
Description:
Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy when the body cannot produce enough insulin to meet the increased needs. It usually resolves after childbirth but increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life.
Impact on the Body:
Can cause high blood pressure during pregnancy (preeclampsia).
Increases the risk of having a large baby, leading to complications during delivery.
May result in low blood sugar levels in the newborn and a higher risk of obesity and type 2 diabetes in the child later in life.
4. Prediabetes
Description:
Prediabetes is a condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as type 2 diabetes. It is a critical stage for intervention to prevent the progression to type 2 diabetes.
Impact on the Body:
Often reversible with lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise.
Increases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
Symptoms are often absent or mild, making regular screening important.

HbA1c Limitations in Assessing Blood Sugar During Pregnancy
Pregnancy is a period filled with excitement, joy, and a host of medical tests to ensure the health of both mother and baby. One of the most critical aspects of maternal health is monitoring blood sugar levels, as any imbalance can lead to complications. While hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is widely used to monitor blood sugar over time, its application during pregnancy has certain limitations. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore what HbA1c is, how it works, and why it may not be the most reliable indicator of maternal blood sugar during pregnancy.
Understanding HbA1c
HbA1c, or glycated hemoglobin, is a blood test that measures average blood glucose levels over the past two to three months. Hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells, binds to glucose and forms glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) test. The percentage of HbA1c in the blood provides an indication of average blood sugar levels over that period.
This test is frequently used by healthcare providers for people with diabetes to monitor long-term glucose control. It is an essential tool for assessing a patient's degree of glycemic control over time and is often used to adjust treatment plans.
Normal Blood Sugar Control During Pregnancy
Pregnancy affects almost every system in the body, including glucose metabolism. Hormonal changes lead to increased insulin resistance as pregnancy progresses, especially in the second and third trimesters. These changes are a natural part of pregnancy, ensuring that the baby receives adequate glucose for growth and development.
However, these metabolic disturbances can also pose a challenge for women with pre-existing diabetes or who develop gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Effective glycemic control is crucial during pregnancy because high and low blood sugar levels can have serious consequences for both the mother and the developing fetus. These consequences include:
Increased risk of preeclampsia
Premature birth
Macrosemia (large birth weight)
Neonatal hypoglycemia
Increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life for both the mother and the child
For these reasons, it is vital to carefully monitor and manage blood sugar levels during pregnancy, and this is where the limitations of HbA1c become significant.
HbA1c and Pregnancy: Limitations to Consider
While HbA1c is an effective tool for long-term glucose control in non-pregnant individuals, its reliability decreases during pregnancy due to several physiological factors.
Impaired Red Blood Cell Turnover:
Pregnancy is associated with increased red blood cell turnover, primarily due to the increased oxygen demand in both the mother and fetus. This increased turnover shortens the lifespan of red blood cells, leading to a decreased percentage of HbA1c even when blood sugar levels are elevated.
The typical lifespan of red blood cells is around 120 days in non-pregnant individuals, but during pregnancy, this lifespan decreases due to physiological changes such as increased plasma volume and increased red blood cell production.
Fluctuations in Blood Glucose Levels:
Another limitation of HbA1c in pregnancy is its inability to capture fluctuations in blood glucose levels. Pregnancy, especially in cases of gestational diabetes, is often characterized by significant swings in blood sugar, ranging from hypoglycemia to hyperglycemia. HbA1c only reflects an average of blood sugar over time and cannot detect these fluctuations.
This is a critical limitation during pregnancy, as postprandial (after-meal) glucose levels can significantly affect fetal growth and development. High postprandial glucose levels increase the risk of fetal macrosomia, even if fasting glucose levels are within the normal range.
Diagnosing Gestational Diabetes:
HbA1c is not a standard diagnostic tool for gestational diabetes. Screening for gestational diabetes typically involves glucose tolerance tests, such as the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), which are more accurate at detecting pregnancy-specific blood sugar abnormalities. Since HbA1c provides an average measurement of blood sugar over a few months, it lacks the accuracy needed to diagnose gestational diabetes, a condition characterized by glucose intolerance that develops during pregnancy.
HbA1c results may not adequately reflect the rapid changes in blood sugar levels that occur during these periods, leading to potential underdiagnosis or delayed treatment.
Anemia and Hemoglobin Variants:
Anemia is a common condition during pregnancy, affecting nearly 20% of pregnant women worldwide. Low hemoglobin levels, often caused by iron deficiency, can falsely reduce HbA1c levels, giving an inaccurate picture of blood glucose control.
Since anemia is common during pregnancy, relying solely on HbA1c to assess blood sugar control can lead to misinterpretation of results and suboptimal care.
Physiological Changes in the Second and Third Trimesters:
Hormonal changes in pregnancy significantly affect insulin sensitivity, particularly in the later stages. Estrogen, progesterone, and human placental lactogen (HPL) increase, leading to increased insulin resistance. Women who had normal glucose tolerance before pregnancy may have difficulty maintaining stable blood sugar levels as insulin resistance increases.
Lack of Real-time Data:
One of the major disadvantages of HbA1c during pregnancy is the absence of real-time feedback. Since HbA1c reflects an average glucose level over several months, it does not offer immediate information about the current state of blood sugar. Pregnant women need real-time glucose monitoring to make timely adjustments to their diet, lifestyle, and medication (if necessary) to prevent complications.
Misleading Results for High-risk Groups:
Certain groups of women, such as those with pre-existing type 1 or type 2 diabetes, may not benefit as much from HbA1c monitoring during pregnancy. These women are already at higher risk for complications, and relying on an average measure like HbA1c may not provide the detailed information needed to make crucial adjustments to their diabetes management.
Alternative Methods for Monitoring Blood Sugar During Pregnancy
Given the limitations of HbA1c, other tests and monitoring methods are more effective in assessing blood sugar levels during pregnancy:
Self-monitoring of Blood Glucose (SMBG):
Self-monitoring of blood glucose involves monitoring blood sugar levels at different times of the day using a glucometer. It allows pregnant women and healthcare providers to track fasting and postprandial glucose levels, providing real-time data that can help make immediate adjustments to treatment.
Self-monitoring of blood glucose test is particularly useful for women with gestational diabetes or pre-existing diabetes, as it allows for close monitoring of glucose fluctuations throughout the day.
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM):
Continuous glucose monitoring is a more advanced method of keeping track of blood sugar levels. A small sensor placed under the skin measures glucose levels continuously throughout the day and night, providing real-time data and alerts for high or low glucose levels. CGM is particularly useful during pregnancy, as it captures glucose trends and fluctuations, providing a more complete picture of blood sugar control than HbA1c.
Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT):
The oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is the standard test for diagnosing gestational diabetes. It measures how well the body processes glucose over a specific period after consuming a sugary drink. The OGTT is more sensitive for detecting glucose intolerance during pregnancy than the HbA1c, making it the preferred diagnostic tool for gestational diabetes.
Fasting and Postprandial Glucose Tests:
Fasting and postprandial glucose tests offer a more direct measurement of blood sugar levels at specific times. Fasting glucose measures blood sugar after an overnight fast, while postprandial glucose measures blood sugar after meals. These tests are particularly useful during pregnancy, where glucose spikes after meals can significantly affect fetal development.
Importance of Timely and Accurate Testing During Pregnancy
Accurate and timely blood sugar testing during pregnancy is crucial to prevent complications for both mother and baby. Misinterpretation of test results due to the limitations of HbA1c can lead to under- or overtreatment, which can result in unnecessary interventions or missed opportunities to prevent adverse outcomes.
For pregnant women, a combination of glucose control methods, such as self-monitoring of blood glucose, continuous glucose monitoring, and glucose tolerance testing, is essential to provide a complete picture of blood sugar control and ensure the best possible outcomes.
Conclusion
While HbA1c is a useful tool for assessing long-term glucose control in the general population, it has significant limitations when used to monitor blood sugar during pregnancy. Impaired red blood cellturnover, fluctuations in blood glucose levels, and physiological changes of pregnancy contribute to the unreliability of HbA1c in this unique period of a woman's life. Alternative methods, such as self-monitoring, continuous glucose monitoring, and oral glucose tolerance tests, are more effective in ensuring accurate glycemic control during pregnancy.
Ampath Labs offers a variety of advanced diagnostic services, including glucose tolerance testing, continuous glucose monitoring, and other essential pregnancy-related blood tests. With its convenient at-home sample collection services and state-of-the-art facilities, Ampath Labs ensures that expectant mothers receive accurate and timely results, helping them maintain optimal health throughout their pregnancy.

I always thought of diabetes as a thing you either Have or Don't but I looked into it a bit and man I was like extremely close to being diabetic before medication and literally follow the same treatment as type 2 diabetics (metformin and blood sugar monitoring). Hell if I had another blood test before starting the meds I may have been considered diabetic medically. Anyway I had the worst blood sugar crash of my Fucking Life tonight and had do the test it, drink orange juice, test again to be able to go to bed safely and it all just sucks. I don't want to deal with this happening for the rest of my life.
#It was 61 mg/dl which isn't like You're Gonna Die but is low for diabetics and almost too low for non diabetics#Didn't get any sleep last night so I was ignoring the symptoms chalking it up to that#But I had blurry vision was super pale and got extremely nauseous then threw up (Badly.)#I basically thought it was getting better walked to my bedroom from the bathroom and immediately threw up on all my stuff -_-#On the plus side this is like emetophobia exposure therapy. Sometimes something is so gross the panic doesn't even set in#It's just well. The worst possible scenario (vomit on my personal belongings and person and clothes) happened. Let's deal with it#Meanwhile if someone says their stomach hurts I start having an anxiety attack#Well anyway. Guys I don't want to deal with my body trying to kill me every 2 weeks forever.#It'd almost make me feel better if I could just say I'm diabetic because atp there's not a big difference between my life and a type 2#It's just that mine is theoretically reversible (and it's getting better with meds!! just slowly.)#but genuinely if i have to take diabetes meds forever to not be diabetic am i not just diabetic but well-controlled?? i have to ask my endo#I'm also feeling less leery about considering myself maybe disabled from all this cause like#it's manageable when it only happens at night but if this happened in public it'd be a nightmare#I would crash a fucking car if this happened while driving#Ugh. I wish glucose monitors were cheaper and I could just use one of those. Very hard to test your own blood when you're Fucking Dying

Glycated Haemoglobin Testing: An Important Tool To Monitor Blood Sugar Levels
Glycated haemoglobin, also known as hemoglobin A1c or HbA1c, is a form of hemoglobin that is formed in a non-enzymatic glycation pathway by exposure to plasma glucose. Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen around the body. It combines with glucose in the bloodstream to form HbA1c. The more glucose in the blood, the higher the fraction of HbA1c.
Measuring Hba1c Levels
HbA1c level reflects average plasma glucose over the previous 8-12 weeks before the test, which corresponds to the lifespan of red blood cells. A glycated haemoglobin test measures the percentage of HbA1c in the blood and is expressed as a ratio or percentage, for example 6.0% or 42 mmol/mol. The test is usually performed every 3-6 months on people with diabetes to monitor their long-term blood sugar control.
Diagnosing And Monitoring Diabetes
HbA1c testing is commonly used for diagnosis of diabetes as well as prediabetes. An HbA1c level of 6.5% or higher on two separate tests indicates diabetes, according to recommendations from the American Diabetes Association. An HbA1c between 5.7-6.4% suggests prediabetes or increased risk of diabetes. Monitoring HbA1c levels every 3 months helps healthcare providers see if treatment plans for diabetes are working or if any adjustments need to be made.
Correlation With Average Blood Glucose
Various studies have shown that Glycated Haemoglobin Testing levels directly correlate with average blood glucose levels over the previous 2-3 months. According to research, each 1% increase in HbA1c level corresponds to around a 30 mg/dl (1.7 mmol/l) rise in average blood glucose. For example, an HbA1c of 7% reflects an average blood glucose of 154 mg/dl (8.5 mmol/l). This relationship helps healthcare providers interpret HbA1c results and manage patients' diabetes treatment goals.
Target Hba1c Levels
The American Diabetes Association recommends target HbA1c levels of below 7% for many non-pregnant adults. Lower HbA1c levels such as below 6.5% are encouraged for selected individual patients if achievable without significant hypoglycemia or other adverse effects of treatment. For pregnant women with diabetes, maintaining HbA1c levels between 6-6.5% is advised. Achieving targets can help reduce risk of diabetes complications such as eye, kidney and nerve disease.
Factors Affecting HbA1c Results
Several factors can influence HbA1c test results other than average blood glucose itself. Factors which may result in HbA1c readings that are not a true reflection of average blood sugar include conditions affecting red blood cell turnover such as anemia, blood loss or transfusion. Some medications like aspirin, vitamins C and E are thought to potentially interfere with the test as well. It is important for healthcare providers to consider such factors when interpreting HbA1c results.
Role Of Hba1c In Diabetes Management
HbA1c testing plays a pivotal role in both diagnosing and managing diabetes. It provides clinicians with valuable long-term information about a patient's glycemic control over the preceding weeks and months. Along with self-monitoring of blood glucose and symptoms, HbA1c guides diabetes treatment decisions like medications, lifestyle modifications and nutritional therapies needed to achieve target blood sugar levels. Regular monitoring helps prevent complications by ensuring continuous optimization of glycemic management. Overall, Glycated Haemoglobin Testing is a crucial tool for diabetes care.
Glycated haemoglobin or hba1c testing is an important medical test used to diagnose diabetes as well as monitor long-term blood sugar control in patients with diabetes. It reflects average plasma glucose over the past 2-3 months and helps healthcare providers guide treatments to achieve blood glucose targets and reduce risks of diabetes complications. While several non-glycemic factors can also influence HbA1c results, it remains a fundamental component of diabetes assessment and management.
