  • newbirth35, is this dangerous? I am getting this in 2 months time. Can I die or am I being silly?

  • No, you won't die from it. :) I was dx'ed hypoglycemic because my blood sugar dipped as low as 30 in hour 3, but even then I was walking and talking. They do recommend staying in the lab waiting room the whole time in case you do faint or something, but those instances are rare.

  • I might get this im scared

    I need it to find out if im hypoglycemic

  • Nothing to be scared of. You'll feel crappy for a while, but you'll be okay in the end. :)

  • @WorldTurnBlack If you have diabetes you will fail the test. That's why it's diabetes.

    

  • good veins vic

  • What an excellent video. Thank you for sharing :), hope you are well

  • If this were to be ordered for me. The lab would be told. A catheter would be placed to facilitate the drawing process. No matter the doctor's orders, without the catheter placement this test wouldn't be done because I wouldn't tolerate that many sticks in one day. Neither could my emotions deal with it.
