HI, this is a question for my mum. I've finally managed to persuade her to do a private test to get a full view as her TSH has been consistently over 2 and she has a whole host of hypo symptoms, and has for many years. She has recently been diagnosed with Systemic Sclerosis which is also causing overlapping symptoms.
6 years ago she had to have Nissan fundalplication as the sphincter in her stomach had stopped working. There have been complications lately that mean she is once again under the gastroenterology consultant as the only thing she can tolerate is cappuccino.
I know that it's best to fast before the test, however she wakes up every morning at 4.30am and has to have a cup of her cappuccino to relieve her thirst. Will this be OK if she still takes the test at 9am? I know she wouldnt cope going a full 12hrs without a cup as she is unable to tolerate water whether it be cold or warmed.
Thank you
