 Glucose Tolerance Test
I took the 2 hour glucose tolerance test today. The dr. will have the results tomorrow, but I won't get them until my appointment next week. I hate waiting! I'm probably the most impatient person you'll ever meet.
I was wondering if how you feel during the test can be any indicator of the results?
Obviously when I got there I hadn't had anything to eat for 10-12 hours, so my blood sugar was really low. I was weak and very tired. Shortly after drinking the special drink (like 5 minutes later), I was really jittery and got a headache. Then, half an hour after the drink, I was dead tired. I spent the next hour and a half that I as stuck at the hospital sitting in the waiting room with my head on my husband's shoulder. I could barely keep my eyes open.
Is this how most people feel during the test? Is this any indicator of what my results will be? I know I won't know for sure until my appointment, but I'm just really curious.
