[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 1639329, member: 209498"] Welcome to the forum [USER=457795]@joninstjohn[/USER]. Your bs levels would suggest you could be diabetic, but you won't know for sure until you get the results of the blood tests (HbA1c) which gives your bs levels over the last 8-12 weeks. It is all bewildering at first, but once you get the diagnosis you should be able to take steps to deal with it. There are two main types of diabetes, Type 1 and Type 2. If you are diagnosed as Type 1 that is controlled mainly by taking insulin. I don't know anything about that, but there are T1s on here who can give you advice. If you are diagnosed as T2, that can be controlled by diet and exercise. Let us know when you get your test results - ask your GP for a printout of the full results, and people on here can help you understand them. [/QUOTE]
