Pregnant and have to do 3 hour glucose test
I am 10 years post op and pregnant. I just found out that I need to have the three hour glucose test. I tolerated the 1 hour glucose test just fine with no issues and have done so twice during this pregnancy. Even being 10 years post op I do sometimes get sick to my stomach if I have to much sugar. Has anyone ever done the 3 hour glucose test and not had any problems?
i passed the first trimester one-hour tests fine early on in my pregnancy. when it came time for the last one in my third trimester, that's the one that came back elevated. i have a bad history with the three hour test causing migraines and making me sick to my stomach for a week. it's too much sugar in one sitting. i don't know what causes it i just know it makes me nauseous. as an aside, i asked what the upshot was if i failed that one, i was told, a glucometer and sticking my fingers four times a day to measure my blood sugar and having to walk my food intake even closer until i gave birth. i opted for the glucomter. they said if my sugars came back normal they'd cut it down to every a few days, but so far it's been having a pain in the rear for the evening meal.
