How does the amount of water you drink affect blood glucose levels?
Everything I read online seems to indicate that dehydration *increases* blood glucose levels, but the instruction manual for my monitor and strips (OneTouch Ultra2) says that “You may get false *low* glucose results if you are severely dehydrated”.
Non-fasting sugar levels same as fasting sugar levels?
I had to drink sugar water before having my blood drawn for glucose test, and my levels were exactly the same as when I was on a 12 hour fast. Not higher.
Does this mean anything?
Is this normal?
Thanks!
