Question: Would my doctor have me fast for a glucose test that didn't need to be fasted for just so I would fail and have to go to the hospital for the second test? $$$ I am a Medicaid patient. He's also ordered an Xray for my thigh without actually investigating possible causes for my pain...which my physical therapist says is just residual pain from the hormonal and pregnancy changes that have been introduced to my body.
If you failed you should do the second test to be sure. GD is very serious. And do the X-ray just to check. You're not paying for it out of pocket so why not. Maybe you'll get some answers
