GTT = Glucose tolerance test. A particularly nasty form of torture that involves a three day carb binge, followed by fasting... You then front up to the pathology centre and have blood taken and give a urine sample. This is followed by drinking the icky glucose drink... an hour later they take another blood test, followed by another an hour after that... At this point they finally release you feeling sick and dizzy to be able to eat!
Had acupuncture this evening, and have a few suggestions of things to follow up on what may be causing the anemia... Today has been way worse than normal and I'm really tired and dizzy - seriously not fun!
