Hi all,
The hospital called this morning with my recent blood test results, and I was alarmed to discover that my hba1c is 103. I think it's fair to say immediate action is required.
I eat & drink fairly poorly and I'm overweight and do no exercise (having once been a competitive cyclist), so I'm hopeful that I can achieve some fairly swift results by changing my lifestyle.
I'm also scared that I might be at risk of immediate health problems, as from what I can gather, 103 is right at the upper end of the scale, and this was from a blood test taken 2 months ago, so chances are it's worsened since then (I'm going for another tomorrow).
Any advice or reassurance welcome.
Chris
