My daughter's HbA1c was 48 at the hospital her consultant remarked that daughter was T2 but her GP says borderline or pre diabetes.
Doctor decided to repeat blood test this week when daughter phoned for result was told borderline.
The point is I believe as does her consultant and other doctors she has seen at the hospital recently that she is just within diabetic levels.
Here's the quandary as I follow a low carb diet and she eats what I have mostly for main meals her HbA1c is going to be lower do I advise her to eat normally until she has a test done again so as to get a diagnosis and then the proper diabetic checks such as for retinopathy and foot health.
or would that be counterproductive or even harmful.
I am not sure what would be best,
