I have to have fasting blood work... is it ok to have my morning glass of lemon water before?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fast 8 hours: It's best to maintain an 8 hours of nothing by mouth prior to any fasting lab studies . If you can schedule your lab draws first thing in the morning, it's typically easier to maintain this standard.
