I know that it's not the end of the world if I do get diagnosed but I can't help being upset about it. The nurse told me that it's very common for people to have the 1 hour test and have elevated levels then go back for the 3 hour test and everything be normal.
I had a hectic morning before the test yesterday, my husband's car had a flat so I had to take him to work and my son to school, and then I called my doctor's office because they never called to confirm the appointment and it turned out that they didn't even have me on the schedule so I had to come in at 15 minutes before I thought I was supposed to.
I didn't have time to eat a balanced breakfast so I ate a packet of the Special K pastry crisps in chocolate, maybe 30 minutes before the test. I'm hoping that's what made my level come back hig
