Newbie here!
I got a letter today, saying I'd had a place reserved on the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme.
My last blood test, this time last year, had a HbA1c of 38 mmol/mol, which was said to be fine. Now I'm apparently prediabetic based on the same reading of 38? I don't really understand why.
I have a blood glucose meter which I use occasionally, just to prove to myself I'm not prediabetic. The odd funny reading, but if I try it again the next day I'm fine.
Any advice for a confused new person please? TIA!
