Did anyone else out there drink the orange drink for the glucose test and feel absolutely horrendous? I thought I was going to puke or pass out. My doctor said that my body isn't used to so much sugar--which is true, I'm not big on sugary things. I'm totally fine, but man did I feel nasty about an hour after drinking it. Am I the only one?
Re: Did the Orange Drink for Glucose Test Make You Feel Sick?
i felt like i was going to puke and pass out. they offered me some crackers after they drew my blood. that drink is truly a "sugar rush"
i felt horrible the rest of the day - nausea, headache, icky tummy
?
I actually liked it and could of had another! LOL!
Does that mean I eat too much sugar? Hmmmm....
Yes!
Right when I drank it, I felt gross. Then, when it was about an hour later, I felt like I was on some drugs or was going to pass the heck out.
The lady told me it was my crash from the sugar high.
Ick.

This preg-No, had a headache but not too bad. My test came back that I was hypoglycemic.

Oh, and my place didn't refrigerate it either.
I did the "lemon-lime" for the 3hr and that was gross too, AND it had double the sugar as the orange one.
Suckfest.
Actually drinking it was not bad at all - it made me want McDonalds cause it reminded me of the organge drink haha. Afterwards my stomach felt fine but I had a really bad headache that didn't go away until the next day. I do eat a lot of sugar though...

I've had 2 one-hours and fruit punch both times. I hate fruit punch! Would much rather have lemon-lime.
My last 1 hour was yesterday. I ate an egg, piece of sausage and 1 whole wheat toast for breakfast beforehand. I had the druggy crash feeling at one hour after the drink, followed by the yawns at 2 hours. I felt much better after I had lunch.
I liked the one I had. It was fruit punch and cold. I was fine the rest of the day.
