Blood Test Result!

Is 151 high for a Blood Sugar test result? This was before I went into Hospital and before T1 diagnosis.

Over 48 for HBA1C is high. Mine was 99 when I was diagnosed with T2.

Depends what the test was and what units?

I don’t understand any of it.

OK, your hba1c was 151mmol/mol which corresponds to an average blood sugar of 22mmol/L over the last 3 months. I would argue that this is pretty normal for a new young (under 30 ) T1. Nothing to worry about, your body was gradually stopping its insulin production so a high hba1c confirms that. (Disclaimer, not a doctor.)

I actually think that you are doing well! Much better than you are allowing yourself.
These are really sensible questions.
Keep going and keep learning!

Hopefully my Hba1c will have come down.

Do note that often they don't want you to reduce it too fast, ie dont worry if its not as low as you may have seen many post on here.
But yeah it should've dropped a bit by the time of your next blood test
