glucose test.....

Every one has told me the drink is awful. It was actually not that bad to me. It tasted like someone melted a bunch of popcicles in a cup and gave it to me.  If i pass this, i can pass any sugar test lol

Tasted like orange gatorade to me. Wasn't thick and xtra thick like I was told it would be. I did, however, get pretty jittery about 2 hours after drinking it.

For me it wasn't the taste that was the problem, but the fact that i got nauseous after drinking it (because of the sugar level, not the taste). About 30 min after drinking it i had to sit down and close my eyes a bit: everything started spinning, and felt like throwing up.
But it went away and i felt MUCH better when i ate some bread after my blood was taken (if i ever have to do this test again, i need to remember to bring my own bread, the one at the hospital tasted like cardboard lol) I went in sober (wasn't sure if i needed to be) so that may have heightened the effect it had on me.

Monday i know if i passed...

Idk for me mine tasted like too sweet sprite and the first half the bottle went down easy enough, but the second half was making me sick, not used to having that much sugar at once without drinking water in between and then because they told me not to drink water for the hour I was dehydrated and really sick feeling by the time they took my blood
