The Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGGT) made me feel really sick and I had to lie down (or I would have fallen down). My blood pressure dropped to 70/40 and I was nauseated and vomiting. I did not expect such a reaction from just doing a test. So from my experience just having the test was quite horrific.
After 2 hours my Blood Sugar was 10.4 which is too high. It is meant to be 7.0 and under.
There are lots of books around which explain how to eat low GI foods, and the internet is great. But even still I have gone on insulin as diet alone has not made much difference.
I am on 2 units at lunch and 8 at tea. But my sugar levels are still a bit unpredictable, I am just happy that I only have 8 weeks to go.
