Three Hour Glucose Tolerance Test Diet
Oral glucose test: 103, 150, 97, and 45?
So I went and had my oral glucose tolerance test this morning. I was at 103 when I went in (fasting for 12 hours), then 150 one hour after the 100 mg glucose drink, 97 two hours after, and then I dropped down to 45 three hours after. My doctor (who is just a general family practice type) said I was probably hypoglycemic but she didn’t tell me what to do next. I wasn’t given a diet or any info or anything. She just told me 45 was too low and to go eat lunch.
Can anyone offer any ideas or help or suggestions of what I should do now? Is 45 “too low” or 150 “too high?”
Thank you!
sounds like reactive hypoglycemia…follow the diet closely and it should keep your blood sugar level….stay away from sweets, refined sugar and starches, as these all raise your sugar level and then they drop really low
