I just found out from a test that my sugar level is 275, and I'm kind of worried. I have an appointment with my doctor in a week, but I'm unsure what to do until then. Should I see a doctor right away? Are there any precautions I should be taking in the meantime?

If its the first time your sugar has come high, retest. Better get fasting and post lunch done. If the values are high you can go for online consultation here and start meds.

I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I had an IVF procedure on August 26th, and on September 9th, my beta hCG level was 44.34. I repeated the same test later that day, and it went up to 51.80. Then, two days later, it rose to 97.79. Am I pregnant? Please help me understand what's going on.
