I'm having my 1 hour glucose tolerance test done in the morning. Do I need to be fasting? I can't remember if I was told to or not. I assumed I was, but I googled it just to be sure (because I always end up in the ER with a migraine when I fast) & what to expect says you DON'T fast for the 1 hour one. Anyone know for sure?
Thanks ladies! I had to completely fast for mine. So glad I passed cuz I was not looking forward to the 3 hour one.
I was told not to fast for the 1 hr one but I think it is best you do because if you're unlucky like me then you will fail it and have to end up taking the 3 hour one 😑 it's what happened to me cuz I ate before the 1hr one
I was told to fast but there was no way I was doing that since I'm always hungry. I just made sure to eat a big breakfast 3 hours before my appointment like toasts, eggs, orange juice. My doctor told me I passed my test with flying colors.
you need to call your dr and ask even if it's the on call I was told to fast with mine
They told me to eat and hr before. Like an omelet with just cheese. Nothing with sugar or carbohydrates. My appointment was at 8 so I ate at 7
I was told to eat but not to eat after I drank the drink they give you and not to drink anything.
