I failedmy 1 hr test too. However I'm not going to take the 3 hr test no matter what my doctor says. If by any chance I fail the 3 hr test, what would they tell me to do? Diet? Cut off some foods and drinks? So, I'll just do the diet thing and avoid the test!

I failed my 1 hr and had to do the 3 hr test, which did suck. However everything came back completely normal. My doctor said it's not uncommon to fail the 1st test and pass the 2nd one. Good luck and bring a good book

I just took my 3 hour one its no fun....the drink is thicker and twice the amount of glucose...tastes like you are drinking dayquil.  I would ask to get put up on a bed because after the first half hour you fell horrific.  Do your best to be as comfortable as possible and sleep in between blood drawings.  

If you throw up they'll cancel the exam.  

You'll be fine

I'm sorry. Just remember YOU didn't fail...just a test that says maybe this baby needs some extra care. It's very manageable I promise :) my husband is type 1 so I know it can be done!

I failed mine too. Found out Friday. Now I have to take the 3 hr tomorrow as well. I didn't eat anything before going and only drank water.
