GTT results - are these normal?

[nicksi27]

I had a GTT yesterday and just had a sneaky look on the computer system (i work in the NHS) and looked up my results.

My fasting was 3.7mmol and 2 hours later (after the lucozade) it was 3.7mmol

Is it kinda weird for them to be both the same? I dont really understand diabetes etc

Either you have very good metabolism , or somebody made a mistake. Actually, 2 hours after 75 g of glucose you are supposed to have some sugar in your blood... 3.7 is perfect for fasting, but kind of low for post-meal

Thanks i checked again today and theyre definately right and ive had no call from the hospital so im hoping ive got a good metabolism! I felt a bit ill by the time i had the second blood test i felt so hungry and sick. Not looking forward to having it repeated at 24 weeks
