    Am I Pre-Diabetic Now?

    First hbac1 result early July was 49. Just got result from late July test and it had reduced to 47. The doctor mentioned something like a 3 digit abbreviation for the reading (IGR?) but didn't mention pre-diabetes. Is this the same thing? Since that last test that produced a 47, I've also lost...

    Type 2 Meter Reading

    Just done a meter reading 3 hours after ham and eggs. Reading of 8.2. Thought this was odd so checked again and 7.3 and then again 7.4. Using a TEE2 meter. Seems like 7.2 is a discrepancy. What would cause this?

    Exercise and Blood Sugar

    Thanks for all the responses. I haven't been diagnosed T2 yet. I had a hbac1 reading of 49 a couple of months ago. Waiting on a new test result. In the meantime I have lost almost a stone and my estimated hbac1 level through the My sugar app is 38.1 following my low carb diet after about 4...

    Exercise and Blood Sugar

    Thanks for explaining. I can't think that exercise is bad for me generally, but if it raises blood sugar what should I do? Will it have negative effects if I am exercising regularly?

    Exercise and Blood Sugar

    Just test blood sugar for the first time after exercise. Was 5.7 before exercise and then 7.2 after 30 mins in a treadmill. I didn't expect an increase - is this usual? Thanks

    Why Would My Blood Sugar Go Up Without Eating?

    I went to bed last night and my reading was 6.4. This morning it's 7.4. Why would this be if I've not eaten anything? Thanks

    Meter Conversion

    Looks like I have different settings. I don't have the option in pink, and the settings in what I think is the equivalent are mmol/l or mg/dl - you have percent

    When Should I Test After Food

    Hi. I've been testing myself 2 hours after food and most readings are below 7. I've just had a meal (steak with egg and cheese omelet) which is usually fine with a reading after 2 hours, but this time I tested myself after an hour and it was 8.3. Should I be concerned or is this normal and...
