Hi I was diagnosed with PCOS about eight years ago. I was just wondering if anyone has had this happen to them. I went in for a GTT a few days ago. I drank 75 gram glucose drink and waited two hours for my blood to be taken. While I was waiting I think my blood sugar went high because I was very tired and just felt off. About thirty minutes after I left the dr.s office my blood sugar went low. I was shakey sweating and almost couldn't drive. My question is can you be diabetic or even insulin resistant if your blood sugar goes high then low. Don't you just stay high and then go back to normal levels if you have pre-diabetes or diabetes. Im thinking I don't have it because it went low almost three hours after the glucose drink. Any information or personal stories on this would be great.... Thanks
as77, when I did my GTT, I had similar issues. I didn't have the spike you felt, I was fine. But by the time they did the 2 hr labs, and I left, I was in a bad way. I beelined to a burgerking and got a coke and a burger. Chugged the coke, all but swallowed the burger whole.
The crash after the test is normal, don't sweat it. Even my DH, he had to do it all last week, and he had it too, and he's healthy as a horse!
