    Well after all that it turns out that Dorevitch don't specify the high carb diet and you don't need to make an appointment! So i trotted in this morning to do it... was fine fine fine for the first 1 1/2 hours... then felt quite faint then suddenly blech all over the waiting room floor (in front of a happily entranced audience!). So that's a pain. So does anyone know if being sick is a good or bad sign? I knew I wasn't supposed to vomit, but it just happened before I'd really registered

    So they stopped the test, they'll see what they make of the first two measurements (baseline & 1 hour) and i guess if they look bad I'll need to do it again?? Anyone been in this situation before? I'm also going to pursue questioning re the high carb diet too - interesting re your experience MantaRay. So saying, I think my diet the last 3 days was pretty high carb anyway.

    Btw, livgoesagain, good luck with test and I notice your due date is close to mine - you should come join us in our Belly Buddies group for due date Oct 1-15 here
