At my surgery they only do the two hour test but I asked to have bg tested at one hour too and that was ok. So I suppose it varies.Isn't it a fasting glucose test or a mixed meal test?
I don't know your symptoms or why you are going for the test.
The test starts by drinking the 2 measured cups then the glucose levels in your bloods will rise and then you wait to see what happens. Your BSLs will be checked every fifteen or thirty minutes. And depending what happens, a blood sample will be taken to go the labs.
After the test again depending what happens you will be given advice and then you will see the doctor who will decide what meds and diet etc you should be on.
The polo mints may have to binned as well!
