3rd Glucose test

KareBearKCD

I had my first Glucose test Aug 12 and I got my results and the number was just a few points high. The Doctor said that he could rule Gestational Diabetes (GD) with it being that close so I did the three hour test Aug 18 and the Doctor called me back with those results saying only that first (fasting test) was high. The other three were good. My level was 97 and it should be under 95. So today I go into my appointment where I thought they were just going to check my fasting numbers but nope. They checked my fasting # then told me go eat breakfast and come back 2 hrs later as soon as your done with your last bite time 2 hrs and come back for another blood withdrawal.
I told my work I would be one hour late b/c I had a Dr appt but now had to call and tell them I will be even later. I am not happy and this is making me very nervous. Do I have GD or not??? After this test they don't have any others and I guess I will find out. This is stressing me out

I have never heard of that tactic of testing (fasting draw, go eat breakfast, and come back) seems odd IMO.

It doesn't sound like you have it in my opinion, but some doctors are more rigid regarding the results than others.

p.s. I have GD
