I'm thinking about calling and asking about it because I'm confused. Even the fast number (which she told me out loud) was different on my print out. Hmm...I don't know if they have the wrong information, or maybe the report isn't my blood sugar but something else...but what else would it be??

I'll agree with you that its not horrifically bad, but it is still pretty disgusting. :)Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18246468485698360524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4957022463353443812.post-90615266668776690122013-01-22T09:34:49.782-06:002013-01-22T09:34:49.782-06:00Call me crazy, but I never thought the glucose dri...Call me crazy, but I never thought the glucose drink was that horrifically bad. I think since everyone always said it was so horrible I anticipated it to taste like acid or something and was relieved it was just grossly sweet. Don't get me wrong I would never willingly choose to drink the stuff.

I think they all taste the same even though they're "flavored". Ugh - the worst is that you taste it for the rest of the day no matter what else you eat or drink (more maybe that's just me...). <br /><br />That's really interesting about the difference between your test and their test. I think I'm going to go by later this afternoon/evening to get my results because I can't stop thinking about it.Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18246468485698360524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4957022463353443812.post-62120502031695851322013-01-21T12:17:24.522-06:002013-01-21T12:17:24.522-06:00It must be that teacher in you Colleen getting up ...It must be that teacher in you Colleen getting up so early! I love to sleep in if I get a chance! Sounds like your glucose test went well :) You forgot to mention your other achievement unless you are going to make that a part of your thursday post or another post.....<br /><br />I loved the pic of you and the surgical mask! I think I might get one for my clinic appt on this wednesday!!!<br /><br />Good luck with your dr appts this week. Keep us posted!

The lemon lime is my favorite of the three flavors though - it's still nasty, but the orange and fruit punch are both just HORRID in my opinion! I have to gag them down. <br /><br />Oh, and just a word of warning - after my first glucose screen during this pregnancy I went home and took my own blood sugar for the same reasons you mention. With the number I got I was sure I'd failed the one-hour screen and would have to retake the test... but then they called the next day with their results and their number was significantly below mine. It was a little weird since my glucometer is usually pretty darn accurate, but it was a relief! So, I'd just keep in mind that their number might end up different than yours.<br /><br />Good luck with the new endocrinologist!cindy baldwinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01173344689280406987noreply@blogger.com
