[QUOTE="Ross74uk, post: 335291, member: 53875"] Hello diabetoids, Nice to meet you all. Just registered and thought i should post about my recent diabetes diagnosis tests . I was going to have an operation for a hiatus hernia last friday , the hospital did some blood tests five days before the operation was supposed to be. The next day the operation was canceled because my glucose way too high.. 1 day later i was called by my GP about it and asked to drop in to discuss it. Did a pee test for glucose & ketones. I was Positive for ketones and glucose. This monday i went to see the in-house nurse and she took blood for the HbA1 test and put me on slow release insulin at the beginners dose (12 units for 81kg and titrating 2 units extra per 3 days). Anyway, I got the results today. The nurse made an eeeek noise when she opened the results on the screen. My HbA1c result was 142mmol . She said its supposed to be 50 or so and that its the highest reading she's ever seen in 11 years. Glucose was 28 initialy. I'm on fast insulin too as of today. I might need some advice as to dosing. My glucose goes up real fast and high with carb food (yeah i know).. I wonder how fast other people change. Am i a freak ? I think i'm type 1 but nobody has actualy officialy told me yet. Strange week ....... [/QUOTE]
