Glucose test question?
My doctor doesn't do it in her office so she told me to go to a lab like quest.
Do I just call them and make an appt? Do they give me the stuff to drink?
I always forget to ask all the important questions when I'm actually at the doctor's office

Re: Glucose test question?
I went on Tuesday and did at a Lab... I just walked in with the paperwork... they gave me the orange drink- I drank- sat the hour- and did the bloodtest...
No appt needed

Re: Glucose test question?
The lab I went to did not need any appt, but I would call ahead just to be sure.
They do give you the stuff to drink, also my Dr told me to bring a protien snack for AFTER the test, I was not allowed to leave the office until I ate my snack

Lab corp requires an appointment. You can just call your lab and they will tell you. When I called Lab Corp it said on machine.. glucose test and drug screenings require appointment.
Yes they give you the drink there.

The Lab Corp that I went to didn't require an appt. I just walked in with my paperwork. I had asked about it a few weeks before when I took my DD for bloodwork and they didn't mention anything about needing an appt.

Re: Glucose test question?
The only glucose test you need an appointment for at Quest is the 3 hour test. For the one hour test, you can just do a walk in.
