Questions to ask your prescriber or pharmacist
- Which glucose cutoffs does this lab use to read my result?
- Does my two-hour reading fall in a range that needs follow-up?
- Would my one-hour reading change how you interpret this test?
- Should my medicines be held before the next OGTT?
- Would fasting insulin or a continuous glucose monitor trial help explain my result?
- Are my sleep or recent eating patterns likely to have affected this result?
- Will my insurer cover repeat testing or a follow-up visit?
