I was just diagnosed with gestational diabetes. It explains a lot because I’ve gained weight rapidly without changing my diet, have high levels of amniotic fluid and at 29 weeks my daughter’s weight is estimated at 3.9 lbs! Since the diagnosis last week, I have been following the diet religiously and have been eating small meals every two hours, cutting out sugar and juices and counting carbs. And I have to say that I feel AWFUL. I feel tired and lethargic and feel hungry all the time, and even feel nauseous at times. I felt MUCH better before I was eating worse (carbs, pastas, sugars). Anyone else had this happen? I have an appointment with my doctor in a few days so I’ll ask him there but wanted to know if anyone else has experienced something similar. Is my body just adjusting to this new diet? Or is something wrong? Thanks!!!!

Can diabetes make cold symptoms worse?
I was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in October 2008. Three times in the last two winters I thought I was getting the flu, but my flu-like symptoms passed in 24 hours or less. I had never had a 100+ degree fever and body aches without having the flu before these three times. Is it possible that diabetes is making my cold symptoms worse, or do you think it’s just a coincidence? Or do you think maybe I have had the flu once or twice and just fought it off quickly?
