@Linagirl i should have remembered this days ago! I am so sorry.
Because when we eat low carb, our body adjusts, and reduces the number of enzymes we produce, we are less able to cope with carbs - because we have fewer enzymes.
And it takes a few days of normal carb eating, to 'wake the enzymes up'. It is known as the last meal effect - where our body habitually expects to cope with what we had over the last few days.
So, you will be going into your OGTT with downgraded enzymes - assuming you have been low carbing over the last few days?
Going into an OGTT with downgraded enzymes will result in delayed insulin release.
But i don't know how this will affect an RHer.
Low carbers are advised to eat normal levels of carbs (whatever they are!) for several days before the test. But most medical professionals don't know this - and probably wouldn't know their patients are low carbing anyway.
I am sorry, but i didn't remember this early enough to tell you.
I suppose now you face the choice: cancel tomorrow, reschedule and eat carbs for a week beforehand, or go through with it, in the knowledge that your insulin response will be that of a LC RHer - but i honestly don't know what that effect will be.
