With the TSH they should adjust your medication. When you are pregnant you get increased blood volume which can change the amount of medication that you need.

So sorry you are so worried and going through this.  I really don't know what any of that means, but let us know how your 3 hour test goes!

Im sorry I really dont know much about this. But I wish you luck and I hope that everything is ok./ Wait, do you mean you failed your 1 hour glucose test?? With a 170?? There is a running post about the 3 hour glucose test on here and most of the ladies that failed the one hour passed the 3 hour, me included! Good luck! I hope you get some other advise about the TSH leavel, I dont know much about that, sorry:(
