what is the cutoff for 1 hour glucose test ???

Hey all,
I recently had my 1 hour glucose test and my result was 137 (can't recall the unit)!
My hospital has a cutoff at 135.

Is this cutoff normal in other hospitals too ?

I kinda feel sad for failing this test by 2 points and now have to take the dreaded 3 hour test :(

My doctor's cutoff is 135 and I also got a 137, but I didn't have to do the 3 hour since I just barely failed.  I would have declined it anyways with only being 2 points over.  I watch what I eat and since the cut off is different for every doctor I am not overly concerned about it.

They told me 140, and I was 145.  Had the 3 hr test done yesterday,  fun getting pocked 4x.  Interesting how different place have different thresholds.

For my doctor, 140 was the cutoff.

Hopefully you'll have no problem passing the 3-hour test!
