2 Hour Glucose test
Has anyone done this? I am going this week. The doctor thinks I may be insulin resistant.

Re: 2 Hour Glucose test
I did - just the PP said, they draw baseline bloods then have you drink a glucose drink - but for mine, they took blood every 30 minutes for 2 hours.
It's just like the test they do when you are pregnant.
