Glucose Tolerance Test - what does it show?

I shall have to see if I can FORCE down a few mini eclairs then - o the hardship of it :twisted:

Urghhhhh! Don't think I can tackle anything sweet at the mo. Just back from glucose tolerance test (that should be renamed torture test). So glad I have taken this pm off from work just in case. I can't see properly so obviously the glucose drink has done its work - feel absolutely cream crackered too gonna have a nice rest. How awful is that drink I can still taste it now :shock: Just done finger prick to compare with what they say it is on Thursday - came out at 16.3 which is highest I've ever been, was only 11.4 on highest fasting plasma test! :!: Must go eat as feeling rather sick now - on that happy note ta ra

Well rang for the results today and what do you think!!!!!! I didn't need to have the test at all .... all that feeling sick and a day off work for nothing. We must apologise they said we had your diagnosis sorted when you had blood tests in August was a mistake to have GTT as it just confirms what we thought. One positive thing though your fasting levels are down to 7.6 so whatever you are doing must be right - another plus one to the reducing carb works best theory :!: :!:
