| Do It Yourself OGTT
EeyoreButterfly,
Now that you've seen how it's done, you know that an OGTT is not exactly hi-tech. So if you are still concerned, once a month do it yourself. Look around the kitchen and see what you can drink that is around 75mg of sugar. A soda might have 40mg but chugging 2 cans in a few minutes might be a problem. How about maple syrup? Whatever you choose, being consistant is more important than getting exactly 75mg of sugar. You also know that your meter is 10 or 20mg off. This is normal, (try measuring the same drop of blood twice). Record your numbers so you'll be able to detect a trend, month to month. If it blows by 200mg a couple times then it's time to take your data to your doc and see about getting it down.
. One very important item for you to consider: stress can make BG numbers go high and stay high. Take a deep breath, have a glass of red wine and try taking a walk or whatever. Tally Ho, Tom |
