I had mine done today and I feel real tired and like I am going to pass out is that normal? I don't want to call the doc and bother them if this is normal?I feel like I have had no sleep in weeks.

Not really. Have you eaten anything lately? Do you normally feel like this after having blood drawn?

I felt shaky a few hours after having mine, I just ate something and felt better. As for being tired... I was always tired while pregnant

You just need to eat and drink something. That will make you feel better!

Your sugar is most likely low.

I have hypoglosemia and that's what happens among other things when my sugar is low. If you've already taken the test make sure you eat.

No. They gave you pure glucose. It's expeted to get some reaction. If you have G. Diabeties it may effect you. If it gets worse call the Doc. They should not mind. Better safe than sorry.
