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

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.)

Cake.
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.
