Avatar m tn The fasting BG is what all the MD use however its not a good test to see what is going on. for one thing testing, "Dawn Phenomenon" (DP) also hits in the morning and can raise BG (Blood Glucose). It is well known that the fasting BG numbers are last numbers that go bad, meaning you can have problems with BG before they show up in the fasting test. Like checking to see if the barn door is open by looking for horses in the stalls, if the stalls are empty then the door is open.

Avatar m tn t need to spend extra time recording all the details. The one I have selected to use at least for the moment is Glucose Buddy which I have on my cell phone. I am interested in knowing what others are using.
Avatar f tn m going Monday for a monthly check up. When do you start diabetes testing and is that the only thing they test for?
Avatar m tn re late to catching your airplane flight makes the muscles and liver release stored glucose, in turn you burn this off. Continued exercise cause the muscles to store excess glucose for future use. This lowers your glucose levels. At this stage you already know you are prediabetic. There is no need for an A1c meter. This where the home glucose meter becomes a useful tool. I'm not certain of the health protocols in India regarding home glucose meter purchases.
1276121 tn?1420860600 ) i had a urine sample done on monday and she said there was +1 glucose in it so she s ordered a 2 hour glucose test for monday. prior to my urine sample she said i didnt need to do a glucose test as i don t have any of the risk factors. are there any other reasons for glucose to show up in urine? she did say there were nitrates too which she said she s testing for bladder infection, although i have no symptoms of one, could the two be connected?
709686 tn?1277432159 One portiion of the physical is they take a urine sample to check for sugar. My test did not reveal sugar/glucose in the urine. Over the past few years I've had several blood tests done to see if I'm diabetic and each one comes back negative. My question is this. Is it possible to be diabetic when all tests come back negative? I seem to have all the symptoms and my grandfather died from diabetes at a very young age. HELP!

341551 tn?1266980730 Morning ladies! I was supposed to have my Glucose Testing weeks ago but since I've been in the moving process for the past 8 weeks I just got in to see my new Doctor last week and he scheduled my Glucose Testing for today. He said usually its done around your 27th week but better late than never. My question is, he didn't really say what I needed to do as far as prep. Am I supposed to not eat or drink hours before? Or is there a certain amount I'm supposed to drink before hand?
Avatar f tn Glucose is sugar. They're testing how your body digests sugar during pregnancy.
Avatar f tn I have an appointment in 2 weeks fo a 2 hour glucose testing. I'm currently 28 weeks prego. how should I expect to feel afterwards? I'm suppose to work that day. Would I have to call off from work or not?
1240706 tn?1331602111 Also, I will point out that they are calling this test an RGS (Random Glucose Screen) and not a Glucose Tolerance Test, just in case that makes a difference. Anyone else here that has taken this test been able to eat normally beforehand? Were the results affected by this?
231441 tn?1333892766 in big letters and underline it in my record, but not to worry about further testing of urine (last test a week ago was ok) or anything else considering my BP is fine. Maybe I'm just making a mountain out of a molehill about it. :) Well, guess that's normal with first baby. Take care all.
