Thank ou for your reply, most appreciated!

Evening all. I posted on here earlier this week as I’ve had high fasted and non fasted home blood glucose test results. This is after my dr ordered a hbA1c test next week. Wide range of symptoms for 9 months now including tingling in feet, needing to pee a lot (and suddenly sometimes), fatigue...

Thank you. My usual GP and the first new dr I saw are/were very supportive so I was quite surprised the other new GP was so dismissive. I haven’t retested yet but I will do tomorrow so we will see. Appreciate so many responses, thank you all.

Hi all, I’m looking for some advice. My new doctor has ordered a blood test to check for diabetes next week. I have numerous symptoms and suffer with recurrent infections (usually ear and sinus). The dr has asked for this as I’m still unwell and my first ear infection was a misdiagnosed fungal...
