Re: Glucose Tolerance Test
My Dr. told me I didn't have too, just don't eat anything sugary beforehand.

Re: Glucose Tolerance Test
I was told no food after midnight. But I could eat a plain toast and drink water BEFORE you take the drink the lab gives you.
I did not eat.

Re: Glucose Tolerance Test
My doctor didnt tell me anything. I actually asked when I was having the test and he said at my next appointment. I still have to call and schedule the appointment so I'll ask then if I have to fast or not..I vaguely remember doing so in the past.

Re: Glucose Tolerance Test
For my one hour (I took at night) they told me to eat normally during the day then two hours before the test to fast - no food no water or fluids.
I notice that there is not a good consistancy with the directions on the test which doesn't make a lot of sense. The three hour is a fasting test though.
I would call your dr's office and ask. Mine had a sheet with directions on it that they gave me when I scheduled the test.

Re: Glucose Tolerance Test
My dr. didn't tell me anything, I chose to fast from the night b4 (my test was at 11 am). I also took it easy on sweets the day before.
I passed...barely (125).
