I was on this forum a year ago - just before an op where they suddenly took a test and decided I was borderline diabetic and needed it under control before they'd go ahead. So I cut back - I mean REALLY cut back on carbs, lost a stone and generally went super healthy. Then the callback after a few months later was that all looked normal-ish and the op was rescheduled.
So...I forgot about it. Crazy eh?!
Around 2 weeks ago the doctors decided to send me a letter to say they wanted me to test again so off I trotted yesterday. The doctor rang me at home this evening and told me I had diabetes - a 59 rating she said. I need to retest again next week but I'm sure it's not wrong - I've been going on a sugar rush the past few months and feeling ill, tired etc.
So you'll be seeing a lot more of me. It was silly of me to pretend everything was OK. I'm having a stern talk with myself.
