She called for her obstetrician’s visit due to “flu” symptoms. Records for this visit showed that she stood at 4 feet 11 inches tall and weighed 145 lb.  She had a routine glucose challenge test performed and it was noted at 662 mg/dL. A random glucose completed 1-2 days later showed to be at 500 mg/dL. A follow-up HbA1c was at 11.6%. Meghan presented to her obstetrician 3 days after the HbA1c was drawn for ongoing evaluation of hyperglycemia and was advised to rest and take fluids. With the persistent “on-and-off flu-like” symptoms for 3-4 weeks which now included nausea, polyuria, and polydipsia, Meghan presented herself at the Emergency Department.  She also added she needs to catch her breath most of the time.  Additional symptoms included a 23-lb weight loss over the past 3-4 weeks.  Here, she was ordered for CBG and urinalysis. Serum potassium level of 3.35mEq/L.  Meghan was immediately started on an insulin drip at 0.1 unit/kg/hr.  Further assessment and evaluation led to the decision of her hospital admission. Meghan had no family history of diabetes with the exception of one sister who had been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. Her medical history was significant for Crohn’s disease diagnosed in 2018 with no reoccurrence. Her pre-pregnancy weight was usually in between 114-120 lb. She had gained 25 lb during this pregnancy and lost 23 lb just before diagnosis. Meghan’s blood glucose monitoring indicated that values were ranging from 200-300 mg/dl range.
