XP: Re: Glucose Screen

Lolita0626

I just had my glucose screen this morning. I felt nauseated and got a huge headache after I drank the liquid. Is this a bad sign? Did anyone else feel awful after it?

My Dr. actually said it was a good sign.  I definitely felt weird after drinking it and I passed.  Dr. said it's a sign that my sugar had probably never been that high before.

I get really sick from that stuff.  I've passed a few and failed a few, so it's never been an indicator for me.

I had to take my 3hr at the hospital Saturday because I get that sick.  I ended up staying there for hours after because I was so sick.  

I passed.  :-)

Last time, I passed out at the OB's office and failed.  

So, you never know.  Good luck!  I hope you passed!

I threw the drink up during my 3-hour today and have to retake it. I definitely didn't feel great after the 1-hour either, and I failed, but my doctor says that some people just can't handle the sugar in that drink form. I have to retake my 3-hour Thursday, but they are using jelly beans rather than the drink.

GL with your results!

I felt completely normal. I ate about an hour and a half before, and had no issues at all. The drink didn't even taste gross to me, just like slightly flat Hawaiian Punch. I passed.
