Countdown to an important event

Another day gone

Today seemed to be a real 'pokey' day as I had to repeat some bloodwork. Three weeks ago, my doctor prescribed some tests including a 3hr GTT. Anyone who has taken that knows what a pain in the butt it can be. Especially since there is a 12 hr fasting rule and having to drink a syrupy orangy drink. After drinking that 'juice' I immediately felt a wave of nausea and was feeling out of sorts for about 20 mins or so. Being a thinker (ha,ha) that I am, I immediately started surfing the net for what could possibly make me this nauseous. Was it an early effect of pregnancy (I wish!). After a bit of googling, I came up with this. So I am one of the 10-15% of women who have this symptom (which may be indicative of a normal GI?). Whew!!!!!
