Guest guest Posted October 11, 2004 Report Share Posted October 11, 2004 I have had the same thing happen to me since about 16 weeks or so. I seem to dump much easier and much worse than b4 I was pregnant. I had a 2 hr fasting test at 20 weeks and I just had another one on Friday, 28 weeks. The first one was fine and I'm still waiting on the results of this one. I was so sure I had the gestational diabetes with the first test, but I didn't. I usually have really low blood sugar, so maybe this elicits the same kind of reaction. (http://lilypie.com/) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 12, 2004 Report Share Posted October 12, 2004 Most of us have done the 2 hour fasting instead of the glucose test. I would totally NOT do the glucose as you could get REALLY sick. (http://lilypie.com/) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't dump like I normally do, i.e. abdominal pain & diarrhea, but I got real dizzy and had to lie down for a while. Congratulations on your pregnancy, Joni, and best wishes!
