Yesterday I was admitted to the hospital
by ambulance after I had passed out three
times in the morning, soon after starting
to sweat profusely and having tingling
arms. I was in extreme abdominal pain,
not pregnant, and only 19 (soon 20). My
blood pressure was 107/57 before I left
the hospital, and my blood sugar was 98
before haven even eating something.
The diagnosis after a long, long day at
the hospital was a fluid filled cyst on my
left ovary, not cancerous, and not
necessary to immediately have it removed.
It had ruptured a bit and some of the
fluif had leaked, causing the pain.
Treatment will be birth control (which I
have had trouble with in the past
hormonally) and constant checkups due to
the information that my mother has, or
atleast had endometriosis prior to having
a severe hysterectomy last june.
Along with the results of my pain, I was
given a complete list of numbers for
things such as electrolytes, potassium,
calcium, glucose, billirubin, and etc.
My glucose was 98 prior to eating, and it
was checked at about 7 in the morning.
A 98-glucose seems kind of odd to me. I
was hungry the night before, but the last
thing I had was a bowl of fruit at about
9pm. Could I be diabetic, or at risk for
diabetes?
