And now I feel like crap (post gt)

IBackBevo · February 2014

During the glucose test and when they took my blood, I felt fine. But not too long afterwards, I felt like crap. So I take back what I said earlier. I ate and still feel like crap some 3+ hours later. Ugh. I hope the others of you taking your gt today feel better. I also hope this doesn't mean that I failed. I don't remember feeling like this with DS.

update: passed with a 95

I didn't feel great right after drinking it, my head felt weird and I was really tired. It went away about an hour later, but I passed so I'm thinking with that much sugar, its normal not to feel great when your body is working so hard to overcome that much sugar

I felt ok for the whole hour, and they took blood and then I had my regular appointment with the doctor. Then after the appointment was done I was standing at the counter scheduling my next appointment, I started feeling like I was going to faint. It didn't last long though. The 3-hour test was the same way for me. Just waves of light-headedness that would come and go. I hope it doesn't last long for you!

I felt icky for a while after too, but I passed with an 80. With DD I didn't feel sick at all and passed with a 72.. so I don't think you should worry just because of not feeling well.

I felt completely fine during both tests and failed them all. So maybe it's good you feel this way.

I had mine this morning as well. I felt bad for the first hour then better. I now feel awful and took a nap and I passed. Good luck!

The one that I failed, I felt fine. The one that I passed I felt like crap. So hopefully that means you passed!

Made me feel really tired. And super shaky. Not fun at all

Cupcakes89 · February 2014

Had my three hour today also. I was lightheaded and nauseous the whole time.. I felt good up to the second blood draw though... now I'm grouchy and hungry but I have no appetite. I managed to down some grapes a minute ago but really I'm just laying in bed with a massive headache. Ugh I feel so annoying being all bitchy.. sorry ladies!

Like you, I felt fine until shortly after they took my blood and I felt off the rest of the day (test was at 945am). I didn't feel that way with my first either! But it's been 2 days and I haven't heard bad news yet so I think I must have passed (I was also worried that it meant I was going to fail!)

I had mine today and right after drinking it I felt like crap. Light headed and dizzy. I know I didn't fe this way with Dd1 but it was super hot in there so hopefully i passed

bookishnerd · February 2014

I had the 1 hour today too. I thought the drink was surprisingly tasty, like flat Sprite. Anyway, I felt fine during and was able to eat a good lunch when I got home. I haven't felt awful since then, more like just an unsettled stomach feeling. Definitely feels like I need to eat something light and easy on my stomach for dinner.

Fingers crossed that we all pass!

Thanks for replying and sharing your experiences! I have been sleeping for the past couple of hours. Thank goodness I had the entire day off and didn't have to go back into work...and DS was at daycare. A hangover is a very good way to describe it.

Yeah, I had a total sugar crash a few hours later. Good luck!

When I took my GTT with the twins, I threw up an hour after leaving the lab I felt so awful. Passed with flying colors.

deanna1313 · March 2014

I had my 3 hour yesterday and I did great until I got home and I was exhausted and took a nap. She wasn't kidding when she said I would crash.

danabsd · March 2014

I was convinced I failed because it made me feel like death all day after and I didn't remember that last time. I passed, glad you did as well.

mileswithmyles · March 2014

Glad you passed but sorry you don't feel good. I felt like I had a sugar hangover after my test for about 12 hours. Take it easy!

Krisd6 · March 2014

I felt horrible a day- completely off and nauseous!
Still waiting for my results and hoping I don't have to go through that again!!

Glad you passed! Pup and I took a nap after my 3 hr while hubby painted the nursery. My rhogram shot kicked my ass too.
