Those of you with long memories may remember that I changed GP's last year, and when I had my annual blood test, I was told that they consider my Diabetes to be "resolved", due to my results over the previous 2 years, and issued a letter stating that.
My previous GP had never said anything to me, other than congratulating me on my results, and was even still prescribing Metformin to me, until I cancelled it as I'd stopped taking it many months earlier.
Fast forward to now, and we've moved again, this time to South London and I was asked to undertake a blood test which I did. As a result of this my new GP surgery has decided that they don't understand my results, and now want me to undertake an OGTT, and depending on the result of that I may be referred to an endocrinologist.
I have been eating a lot more carbohydrate over the last 12 months, and especially over the Xmas period, so I was quite surprised that my test result was still as low as it is. I was aiming for something in the low 30's.
