A member asked:
Will drinking 40+ oz of water before a fasting oral glucose tolerance test falsely affect the 1, 2, or 3 hour results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
GTT: It is not fasting if you drink 40 ozs of water. It needs to be nothing to eat or drink after midnight for an 8 am test. Good Luck
