Edith Dawson came to Rasmussen Clinic because she was experiencing sight disturbances, constant thirst, and fainting spells. After examining Edith, Dr. Sobiech ordered a glucose tolerance test.
Certified Medical Assistant Wanda Lawry gave Edith a special diet that she was to follow for the 3 days preceding the test and instructions regarding fasting before the test.
Edith has returned to the clinic to have test. "Did you follow the diet I have you Mrs. Dawson?" Wanda asks. "Yes I did." "Did you have anything to eat this morning?"
"No, but I did have a cup of coffee. I thought it would be all right because I drank it black. I can't start the day without my coffee."
