[QUOTE="sandymaynard, post: 109773, member: 15255"] Hi John Hope this helps, Pre-diabetes is almost always a precursor to the development of type 2 diabetes. It is characterised by the presence of higher than normal blood glucose levels that are yet to reach diabetic levels. The scale of the problem is enormous and growing, as Western society and diet becomes more pervasive. I know this sound bad! But both my parents are type 1! Two aunties are type 1! I am luckly a type 2! Diagnoised this year! I am 34 years old! Yes overweight but working at losing the extra work and been working hard at losing the extra weight! I never had pre diabeties, as far as anyone can see! I just started drinking like a fish and weeing alot and craving alot of sugar and sleeping! had a blood test and then i got told that i am type 2! If i would of had the warning but never did then i think that i would of gone into the whole cut all white stuff out etc! By this i mean, Bread,rice,pasta,potatoes,Sugar,cakes,biscuits! and anything like that! But i never had the chance to be able to take control! I am lucky in the sense that i am still on no tablets and have full control! My bloods are rarely above 9 now!Unless i have had some rice that it very rare! I hope this has helped you! Sandy [/QUOTE]
