Was bloods taken before and during, same with finger pricking tests or CGT readings taken every fifteen twenty minutes? Were you told your blood was for c-peptide or GAD?Depending on results, the next stage is probably a fasting test to see if you go hypo without food. If you do, it's not Rh. Again depending on results, if it is Rh, then another eOGGT is likely to be used to ascertain how much you are effected by glucose quickly into your body, more bloods for initial insulin response, and how much insulin is produced by the insulin overshoot triggered by the glucose.This is why a food diary is essential because the trigger point from carbs is different for all of us, which foods are the worst. What we can tolerate.keep askingBest wishes</blockquote>
