[QUOTE="Sweet_Sophie, post: 1492104, member: 411654"] Hello, I was told by the surgery receptionist last week that I was borderline pre-diabetic and I should have a healthy diet and review in 6 months for another blood test. I know my surgery is going down the pants when you are called like this. I was in shock. The blood test was done because I am taking high blood pressure tablets for a few years now and all is under control. My results are HBA1C 42 mmol/mol I came across this website and forum which is really great but I need a bit of understanding. I know I need to lose about 1 stone and exercise a bit more (at the moment lots of walking and 1 fitness class/week). I thought my diet was ok but obviously not. I have already started the low carb 8 weeks programme. What bothers me in my blood test is the cholesterol level at 6.3 mol/L - HDL 2.11 - LDL 3 which my husband pointed at. We have a history of diabetes and coronary problems you name them in the family on my mother's side What do you think ? many thanks [/QUOTE]
