There was an info sheet in my notes so check there! I had my test today at 8am and I wasn’t allowed any food or water from midnight last night! Bit of advice: They told me to get something to eat before I left the hospital but the nearest cafe was really far away and I live fairly close so I drove home, got back and put my toast on as I started sorting the washing I came over all dizzy, I almost fainted I was sweating and could barely stand! I was in the house by myself and I had to force sugary food into myself! It was awful! I then had to lie down and fell asleep for half an hour I have felt so drained for the rest of the day! I would 100% take some biscuits 🍪 with you and don’t think you are ok like I did don’t let yourself diet to the point of feeling so bad! Xx
Such conflicting information from different nhs trusts 🙈 but thank you all for the advice. I'll air on the side of caution. Really not looking forward to this drink on an empty stomach 🤦🏻♀️ x

You have to fast for 12 hours before the test
mine was 8:50 and it said 11pm to fast and only sips of water x
Mines 8.40 and letter says 10pm just water to drink
Mine was at 8:45 and I had to fast from 11pm the night before. But you can have sips of water. X
I have mime tomo at 9.15 and I have to fast from 10pm x It looks like it's around 11hour fasting in most cases x
