Just spoken to a friend who is due for her glucose test - she's been told that she has to fast from 10pm the night before, & to come for her test at around 9am the next day.

So then I'm in a bit of a spin, because my test isn't booked in until 3pm in the afternoon, and there's no way I can make it through a day without food. So I spoke to my OB's office & they said that I don't need to fast at all (except the hour in between swallowing the stuff & the actual test, or something like that).

Can any one who's had this done shed more light on what's the norm??

Thanks
