I did the two-hour Oral Glucose Tolerance Test with the 75g glucose drink. It was downright disgusting.

Fasting - 80
1/2 hour - 144
1 hour - 181
2 hours - 71

I became hypoglycemic on the drive home, but thankfully I was close to home when I realized what was happening. I carry glucose tabs on me at all times now...although I haven't needed to take any yet.

I had a 2 hour post fast test after eating breakfast and I'm wondering about the reliability of the test as my breakfast didn't contain much sugar (including food that converts to sugar.) I'm sorry if this is a dumb question. . And for your information I think just you are terrific.
