has anyone passed out from glucose test? rhogam shot?

I had a glucose test a few days ago and fainted but I also got the rhogam shot the same time... I wonder which one had this effect on me?

I don't think it would have been the rhogam shot. I had my rhogam shot when I was like 7 months, I thought I was in preterm labor. I had no side effects from it. But when I went for my glucose test on a different day I felt really weird like I was going to pass out (never did). I made sure I ate as soon as I left the place.

I got my test results back today from my Glucose test and they think I might be diabetic.
which is confusing as I am small and eat healthy all the time...

Just wondering, what are the risks for my baby?

Definitely the sugar test and fasting. I've had about 5 rH negative shots (different pregnancies) and was fine but that dang glucose test makes me feel weak and dizzy every time and I'm about to go in Thursday for my 5th test (different pregnancies).

Yeah they said it was most likely from the glucose BUT I just find it awful strange no longer and a minute after they injected me with rhogam thats when I passed out..  But could just be coincidence. Has me worried though.  Maybe just bad timing.

It was probably that! I had to fast too, I did the 3 hour one, and by time the 3 hours were up, I was about to pass out! Because of all the sugar the glucose has and the insulin working to get rid of it! Luckily I passed with perfect numbers!

I have to get that shot. I hope it wasn't from that.... maybe it was the glucose because you cant eat.
