Failed my one hour glucose test.

I'll be going in on Friday for the three hour. I've heard there's a high rate of false positives on the one hour. How many of you failed the one hour but passed the three hour?

Most doctors ask that you fast before this test and most make it a requirement. I know that some women still eat the morning of, especially if their test is later in the day, but I would definitely recommend fasting completely. They take your "fasting blood level" first and then I guess compare it to the rest of the blood taken over the course of three hours.

Eat lots of protein for breakfast before the test!  Low carbs...  No cereal or fruit.  It will help your body process the glucose they give you.
