SUGAR SUGAR

At my appointment last week I was given a glucose test to check for diabetes in which you drink a not so good drink in five minutes and then an hour later they check to see how your body did with all the sugar. I did not pass that test so today I had a 3 hour glucose tolerance test. I had to fast, then went in this morning had blood drawn, drank another not so good drink, and proceeded to have my blood drawn 3 more times over a 3 hour period. What a morning.... Tomorrow I will receive my results. This test is to check for gestational diabetes that can develop in the mother while pregnant. I can only hope I passed this test. I hate waiting.
