I am currently pre diabetic. Two few years had a reading of 47. Panicked and got it back to 39 but loosing a bit of weight, changing diet and exercising. Im 60 years old and not very overweight (was 88kg). I had a lot of stress last year and didn’t do much exercise and diet not as strict. Had a hba1c test 2 weeks ago and result was 55. I have been given 3 months to see if I can get it down before being diagnosed diabetic. In 2 weeks I have reduced weight to 85.4kg, exercised and changed my diet. I bought a meter and 4 days ago started using it first thing in the morning. First day wax 6.2, then 5.8 then 6.2. Yesterday I decided to take a reading 2 hours after lunch and it was 6.3. Then decided to take it 2 hours after evening meal ( where I had a normal meal but ate a Cadbury flake desert) and my bg was 10.5. I was shocked. This morning after fasting it’s still 7.2. Clearly disappointed but can this happen or do I have a problem.
