[QUOTE="Emile_the_rat, post: 2097687, member: 301751"] I have to disagree. Getting blood sugar above 7 mmol are normal, everyone gets that. Also a random reading above 7 mmol won’t give any form of diagnose, and by no means a diagnotic start point. Don’t know if you ever talked with a diabetic nurse, or diabetic GP, but my GP told me blood sugar had to be 15 mmol or higher to cause real damage. Also you can’t calculate HbA1c that wait, it does not work like that. Because a non diabetic would get both blood sugar below 7.7 mmol, and blood sugar above and up to 10-11 mmol. The difference here is that blood sugar fall in non diabetics, and usually stay between 4-7.7 mmol. Since non diabetic have fasting blood glucose between 4 - 5.9 mmol it would lower the averange blood sugar and therefor HbA1c. So a few spike above 7.8 mmol in non diabetics would not make a averange of 7.7 mmol and a HbA1c of 48. Also, I’ve tested alot of my friends with my monitor, because they asked :) And well all of them have manage to get values between from 7 and up to 10 mmol after a meal high on carbs. And they are completely healthy. This is not aimed at you HSSS, but I think people should stop making a fuss over normal blood sugar values, I think it is disrespect toward all the people who actually has diabetes and [B]really [/B]struggles with high blood sugar.
