[QUOTE="Yorksman, post: 658206, member: 55568"] If your HBA1c is only 48, you don't have anything to worry about. Simply being careful with what you eat will most likely bring that down to below 40. I brought mine down from 86! Just learn a little about what you shold and shouldn'tt eat but in your case, it's only going to be small adjustments, nothing drastic. Asprin stays in the blood for 2 to 3 days so I take one baby asprin every 2nd day and I changed from Simvastatin back to Atorvastatin because I had a lot of cramps and aches from the former. They have nearly all gone now. But, I also eat a lot of things like fish and olive oil so my cholesterol is quite low so, I might be able to come off it. Learning about different foods and cooking can be enjoyable and that might be all you need to do, but you are only just over the 'diabetes line' anyway. Cutting down on white bread, if you eat a lot of it, might be the answer. I'd have a look at food, diet, recipes and try making some small alterations, nothing fancy, and see how that affects your readings in the future. [/QUOTE]
