Attempted to do glucose test today, had blood test and the drink, went back out into the waiting…

I'm not sure, you'll have to ask your gp. I think you can eat sugary lollies? That drink is so awful! It took everything I had to keep it down 🤢

I had an early one done at 18w, was hard but managed to keep it down but this time around nope didn’t last 5mins and it all came back up 😣

@emily.ftm awwww that sucks! They taste awful too.. as I said ask your doctor, because I'm pretty sure there is an alternative.

I'm doing mine today.. just thinking about it makes me wana vomit 🤢🤢

@mrs.jay__x, good luck! Hopefully you do better then me 🤞

@emily.ftm thanks but I couldn't do it lol didn't even finish drinking the whole bottle without throwing it back up again.. yuck!

😣 oh geez I feel ya hun! Not fun at all

You don’t have to do it!

You can do the fasting test on its own without having the glucose drink.

You can then get your sugar levels checked with a personal glucose machine 2 hours after each meal.

Talk to your dr about other options.
