Remember how I wrote I was going to take the OGTT today? Umm yeah. I started the test and then thought instead of waiting around being bored, I might as well call a friend of mine who I haven’t talked to in forever. I went to see Harry Potter last night and literally five minutes before the movie started, she called me and told me she is pregnant (so thrilled for her!). So I was dying to catch up with her and went outside to talk to her.
When I came back inside they told me, you know you aren’t supposed to walk around during the test. Of course I did, while I was on the phone. Great. So I went in and talked to the doctor* and she said it would be better to break it off and repeat it tomorrow morning as she wanted there to be no doubt about the test results. Not particularly looking forward to drinking that sugary concoction a third time, but it is my own damn fault.
Third time’s the charm, right?
* She did look at my previous test’s results and apparently they do indicate that something is off with how my body produces insulin and processes glucose (which points at insulin resistance). I will find out the exact results of the test next week but I am confident it was the right decision to see a specialist about this.
