Does Drinking Soda Impact Glucose Test Result?
I failed my glucose test, it was 157 and am wondering if me drinking a few sodas the day before one being late night could have effected this test and should I be scared. I read complications during delivery, does that mean I could die during delivery

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
You have not specified if you were tested for fasting glucose or random glucose. The duration you have remained on fasting is important if you got a fasting glucose done. Drinking a few sodas on the previous day is less likely to have affected your glucose levels. You will not die during delivery but certain precautions need to be taken.
