    Blood test results have come back - 1 abnormal result

    Yes they just did a fasting level and the 2 hour level. I just wanted to ask another question too. Am I right in thinking that type 1s tend to have higher levels than type 2s? Type 1s have to take insulin to lower their levels? Both my hba1cs were healthy and all my fasting levels are non...

    Blood test results have come back - 1 abnormal result

    No I have not been told they will check on it. You can see what the letter says, that they recommend I go back to my GP for further testing. That is it I’m afraid. And I didn’t think that non diabetic people can get readings under 4, and get dizzy and shaky regularly? Is it the case that they...

    Blood test results have come back - 1 abnormal result

    Hi everyone, I just wanted to post an update on my situation. So yesterday I got my results of my blood tests I've had recently. For my hba1c I had in February at my first Endo appointment, the result is 37 mmol/L. I had a 2 hour OGTT in March. The fasting level is 5.1 which the letter says is...

    First OGTT tomorrow - really scared

    At McDonald’s now eating some lunch. As I said, I couldn’t really feel anything when they put it in, but it hurt when they took it out. I didn’t look so I had no idea what equipment there was, but it felt like it was stuck to my skin with tape, that did hurt when it came off. I’m scared of...

    First OGTT tomorrow - really scared

    I am here now. It turns out I DO have to have a cannula fitted. I don’t have a choice. I was very scared and burst into tears. Having the next blood test at 11. This will be the longest two hours of my life. Fortunately the cream worked and I couldn’t really feel anything.

    How old is everyone

    I'm 26. I have not been diagnosed with anything, but I get regular hypos and also high blood sugar. Have had these issues for 2+ years. Don't seem to get taken seriously by Doctors (apart from the one who referred me to the Endo department) The others just seem to fob me off.
