Any one else fail the first (1hr) Glucose?

[natemomma27]

My doctor called out of the clear blue today to inform me that my 1hr, glucose was elevated and I would now need to do the 3hr one. He also told me my hemoglobin & anemia levels were low so he prescribed me an iron supplement as well as a stool softener since the iron supplement can make you constipated. He also told me he isn't thrilled about me loosing 7lbs in 2 weeks despite the fact that I HAVE been eating.

Ugh! It's always one thing after the other I suppose.

I failed the one hour too. I don't know why - I didn't eat before it (I know that can give you elevated blood sugar levels), and I was really good with the foods that I ate the few days beforehand. So I was pretty sure I would fail the 3 hr. Anyway, I ended up passing the 3 hr just fine!! It made me terribly sick though, I was sick for the rest of the day and was very off the few days following it. Good luck!

I failed the 1 hour but then had a 2 hour test (in Canada) and passed that. :)  I have heard of this happening to many other ppl as well. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you! :)

I failed both 1 hour and 3 hour and now dealing with GD.  Mot ladies who fail 1 hour test do pass the 3 hour test though.  I hope it's your case.

I am so sorry you have to take the 3 hour test, it's not pleasant!!!
