[QUOTE="ishjohno, post: 228684, member: 31571"] Hi A fasting blood test is for a HbA1c to see how your blood glucose has been, you must have had 1 before and possibly a cholesterol level test as well. You can drink water but nothing else. Don't take any insulin. As suggested before get the earliest appointment with whoever, test your blood glucose when you get home, have breakfast and if you need to adjust your insulin rations. I have these done 2 x a year, been a T1 for 32yrs and have never had any problems, you'll be fine :o) [/QUOTE]
