Blood Drug Testing

Can eating something just before a blood test affect its results?

I'm 17 and I'm not overweight, but my triglycerides and cholesterol are very high. I eat an ok diet, it's not great but it shouldn't have elevated my triglycerides and cholesterol to alarming levels. I ate pizza just before my blood test though and I was wondering if that could have affected my blood test results... I'm scheduled for another tomorrow to verify those results, so I want to know what to expect.

1. Yes... why wouldn't it. That's the deal with Diabetics. Things get into your blood that doctors might not want while testing your blood. But if the doctors didn't say anything about not eating, then it's not a big deal.
2. yes, you shouldn't eat after midnight-Good Luck-
3. I would luv to answer dat question but pizza is good
