Hi. Have just registered as was hoping someone could help me understand results from blood tests please.

The result was:

4.9mmol/L

The lab said:

Random glucose levels =>11.1mmol/L are consistent with a diagnosed of diabetes.
Levels between 7.9mmol/L and 11.1mmol/L reflect impaired glucose.

Does anyone know what that means please. Thanks in advance for any replies. Xx
 
The lab results mean any reading above 11.1mmol/l you are diabetic
Readings between 7.9mmol/l and 11.1.mmol/l you are pre diabetic adjustments to you diet may lower the reading and reduce risk

At 4.9mmol/l you are not diabetic

What type ofbdiabetes runs in your family @Leah300 ?

I agree with the posters above. 4.9 is a normal non-diabetic result
