Patient's question:
Test results:Blood test results for pregnant women: Glucose is negative 3+
Doctor's answer:
Alright, it's about understanding the issue of blood sugar in pregnant women. The specific blood glucose value in whole blood is what's needed, not what you mentioned as negative 3+. If there's a positive 3+ in urine glucose, it could indicate high blood sugar or the possibility of diabetes.Recommendation: There's no negative 3+; only positive 3+ is present. If urine glucose is high, blood sugar is likely elevated. It's recommended to retest both to check for the possibility of diabetes. If blood sugar is high, it needs to be controlled to avoid complications, which could pose risks to both the person and the fetus.
Wishing the patient a speedy recovery.
