Usually it is done by giving the patient a liquid that is sugar rich and then after an hour the blood is drawn to check for glucose levels .If the levels are 140mg/dl then it is normal if it is more then you need to consult a doctor.

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a ACID FAST BACILLI (AFB) STAIN Test or Take a BIOTINADASE ( PLASMA ) Test

How and when do you test blood sugar?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been experiencing itching inside the vaginal area and burning during urination for more than one month. My urine report shows some blood and fungal hyphae present. I completed full courses of Amoxicillin and Ciprofloxacin as prescribed by my gynecologist, but the problem still persists.
