Hi, I'm getting quite a few symptoms pointing towards diabetes.... What number should a none diabetic aim for after a 14 hour fasting, or at normal times through out the day??.... Yesterday after a fasting I was in the 7's, today after fasting I was 4.3mmol, what do you think of these...

Thanks Ann, yes I'm booked in for a Hba1c test, just been using home test kit in the time being.... This morning after fasting 14 hours I was 4.3mmol, so a change from yesterday

Done another 14 hour fasting last night and it was 4.3mmol why is the numbers changing?? I have been eating the same..

Hi, i done a home fasting sugar test last night, with the last food I ate was at 8pm and that was a bowl of berries, this morning my blood sugar reading was 6.9mmol, is thi bad?

Thats really reassuring thanks, from today I'm going to really research what food to eat, plus I'm going to see if I can see a dietician: )

Thank you Defren, much appreciated.... I'm starting to get the hang of this lol

I was just reading up on the HbA1c test, and I got a reading of 39 as 5.7mmol, is this right?

Ok now I understand it a bit better, so it measures your average level over 3 months, I have learnt a lot on this forum today thanks: )

Thanks for explaining the Hba1c test in more detail, so I'm over the 3 months averaging on 7mmol ? Is this high? Could I bring this down with diet, exercise before it is to late? I have just had my dinner at 5pm, when would be the best time to check my blood sugar?

Thanks for that valuable info.... When I done the HbA1c test, it was at 08:38am and there was no fasting as it was a routine test with others, so I probably would of had a couple of coffees with sugar, so would the coffee of changed the results?

It's human growth hormone, I have been put on this for a while as my levels were low....

Anyone no if HGH increases blood sugar?

No xyzzy, the gp says I was in range and was fine, thanks for the info : )

Hi, I got tested on 26/1/12 for Hba1c and the reading was 39mmol....was that high?? Any advice appreciated: )
