three hour glucose test

I've felt horrible all day after my three hour glucose test. I'm extremely lightheaded, I've blacked out several times, and I feel super jumpy/shaky. They wouldn't tell me my results today, but this just makes me think that the results are bad. And I also have no desire to eat, whenever I'm usually starving. I feel like something is wrong :(

That drink make me sick too. I was told it was alot stronger than the one from the one hour test.
Try eating more food and drink plenty of water.
The result normally take a few days to come in and lot of people pass the three hours test even when they fail the one hour screening.

I've had 6 big glasses in the past few hours, but they're not helping. And people usually take the 1 hour test around 24-30 weeks and if it comes back abnormal then you have to take the 3 hour one but my doctor is making me take mine at 15 weeks because of my preeclampsia
