I had the 3 hr OGTT and the at the last blood draw my blood sugar plummeted to 39. My CF NP who got the results just called to tell me that while the test showed no diabetes, this number meant I was hypoglycemic. She then directed me to mycysticfibrosiscom where they have some articles about CF and Hypoglycemia.
She also suggested that to avoid this happening, I should not eat a meal or snack containing only carbs - there should be other macronutrients (protein or fat). This way, my blood sugar will stay at a more constant level, rather than severely dropping a few hours after I eat.
