Hello Ms. Gupta,
I have gone through your query and understood your concern. I would like to know if you were a diabetic in the pre-pregnant state also or have high blood glucose levels noticed only during this pregnancy and also if you are receiving any treatment. If you have not received any specific treatment so far, please do it immediately because the fetus can have adverse effects with uncontrolled hyperglycemia. The high epithelial cell count is suggestive of renal pathology. Further evaluation is needed with a nephrologist. Meanwhile, manage your diet, take adequate rest preferably in the left lateral position and monitor fetal movements. Regular sonograms are needed along with doppler studies. Hope you find this information useful. Take care.
