[QUOTE="Tadpaul, post: 287169, member: 43631"] Went on Monday for the test and results today from the nurse, she says I have a reading of 6.9, which she explained is under the NHS guideline of 7. But as I have no previous test I don't know how I am trending. So should I be pleased or not? Also told me my triglycerides were high (no figure offered or on the screen, just high) so I was given a piece of paper with information on how to reduce the triglyceride level, and guess what it advocates a low carbohydrate diet, ie Atkins, South Beach etc. Now the annoying thing is when I asked her about a low carb diet to control my diabetes and assist in weight loss, she said she knew nothing of this for diabetics, yet she is handing leaflets out left right and centre. Do these people not read their own literature????? [/QUOTE]
