3-hr Glucose Test, Fasting=Fail, but Passed the Rest!
By GypsyTasya » Posted Jan. 17, 2012 10:59am - 217 views - 0 comments
Well, I had the 3-hr glucose challenge test last Thursday b/c I'd failed the 1-hr test. I just got the results today. The nurse said I failed the fasting portion of the test (blood draw when I first got there; before drinking the sugar drink). However, she said that I passed the portions AFTER I drank the sugar drink. Basically, she said I'm what's called, "Glucose Intolerant". I don't need to see the dietician or anything at this point but I must watch what I eat and make sure to eat 3 meals a day plus 2 snacks.
I will have to retake the 1-hr test at 28 weeks to make sure it's all still going well.
