Hey ladies. 
So, long story short, I had an oral glucose tolerance test done to determine if I was insulin resistant and had PCOS (my FS seemed to think I was but wanted to make sure). My nurse called with the results this morning and I was busy and distracted, so I didn't get the chance to ask her any detailed questions about the results. I called her back when I got home but the office was already closed for the weekend.. grr..
All she told me was that I was, in fact, insulin resistant. I asked her how bad off I was and she said "not bad".. mmkay.. I asked her what my readings were and she said "well, you only got up to 191".. whatever that means.. she didn't tell me anything else. I'm going a little nuts here trying to figure out how close to normal or abnormal this is, so I'm hoping y'all can help me out!
My first blood draw was 30 minutes after drinking the glucose drink, so I'm assuming that was the reading she gave me, which was 191. Can anybody shed a little light for me to keep me from going crazy all weekend?
