I thought a cup of black coffee was allowable on a fast day. Or at least that's what I've been told. The PA gave me the guidelines, I'd already read up on the tests and said WTF. The Doctor walked in on the tail end of that discussion with me fighting not to laugh at the PA's indignation. He then agreed a cup of coffee would be alright and grinned at me.

Only cause I REALLY want my A1C to be better this time will I not even try it. I sniffed the coffee pot though lol

Can You Drink Coffee while Fasting for Blood Work?

This is a tricky question, as some doctors will tell you that you can have coffee or tea, as long as it is unsweetened. But the coffee and tea can mess with some test results, so it is best to avoid them altogether when you are going in for fasting bloodwork. You can drink plenty of water, but you should avoid anything else, including cigarettes or gum. It might be a good idea not to exercise, either.

I'm really sorry!! :( No coffee in the morning would make me crazy!
 
it's not even the lack of food. It's the coffee lol. Guess what I'll be buying on my way out the door?? :D

That's what I do too and I go as early as possible in the morning. My ass is waiting for them to open up when I get my blood tested. :D
