My doctor didn't tell me that I was having my glucose screening today...I was so confused but she…

It depends if it a 1,2 or 3 hr fast mines was 1 hr and you just can't eat anything 1 hr prior to the test or drink anything besides water

Next time ask them to write it down or give you a print out of your lab tests so you'll have the directions

@yellowrose90, it's the 1hr test..well what can I eat ? And I've never even thought about asking them to write anything down for me..thank you !!

You can eat anything but you can't eat for an hour before the test

So try to have a big dinner and wake up early to have some fruit waffles and then by the time you get to your appt hope fully an hour would have passed

That's how I did it

@yellowrose90, oh ok thank you very much..I appreciate the help !!!

Not a problem good luck

I had mine this morning all mine was was a 50 gram fruit punch drink they made me drink and an hour later drew blood. They told me not to eat before hand because it can mess with the results but then I got there and the other person there said that she was told she could eat

@amg2469, pretty much my doctor told me do an early test and from 12am-9am when they test you don't eat. Which shouldn't be that hard because we mostly sleep during that time anyways. Just water and bring a snack to the office for when your done with some juice.
