As I started on this thread to help me tighten up things for the few weeks before my delayed annual DN stuff, thought would report results on here. They were exactly what they were at my last NHS blood draw and measurements last January 2020 apart from another rise in my already raised cholesterol! HBaca1 at 34 ( did a thriva test last summer and was 32) Weight BMI still at 20 (would have risen by a little bit if hadn't cut back on my nuts I believe!)Blood presure still 117/68. cholesterol up from 7.7 Jan 2020 to 8.2 February 2021. But I am a high LDL cholesterol girl - looking back over my last records back to early 2000s always a 6 or 7 even before changed what I eat.. My 90 year old mum too also always gets 6/7s results. Had long lecture from DN but it made no difference to my ongoing own personal decison not to take statins.
stressful week but haven't retreated to the nuts yet but have started cream in some of my coffees again!! Mum was due to have surgery this last Monday and I got her up there but then her BP was so raised because of anxiety they decided after keeping us hanging on much of the day that they wouldn't operate and she would have to see her Gp to review her BP!!! They wanted to look at some nerve damage and said it would be difficult re bleeding.
@Goonergal @DJC3 @Rachox @Mrs T 123 will probably be a few days before go back to what did i eat thread as a lot on with caring over next few days but knew you'd appreciate an update.
