i was wondering if people who have had a rny still had a glucose tolerance test, did they give you an injection instead of the drink?

I did the drink twice during my pregnancy. I dumped the first time but the second time I did not.

 I just had my glucose test last week, at the request of my surgeons office I did not drink the sugary liquid.  My OB had me eat 28 jelly beans and then 1 hour later they drew blood and ran my sugar test.  The gal in the lab said that normally RNY patients drink 1/2 of the liquid solution and then test, but I am so glad my Dr. took the advice of my surgeon.

My dr did an early glucose test by testing my HA1C count in my blood work at 16 weeks. I retested again at 28 weeks and had no problems what so ever. I went to bed with nothing to eat after midnight that night and had the first appointment in the morning, so  I didn't have to fast long. Others have mentioned doing fingers sticks for a few days and reocrding the numbers at home.
