Hi everyone,

Just in need of some advice as I can never get in touch with the doctor!! (I’ll keep trying though)…

I am not diagnosed with anything other than hypoglycaemia… so I currently have the libre device, I was originally having lots of hypos when I had it attached a year ago, my morning glucose was always in the 4’s…

This time it’s so different, my morning glucose is nearly always 7mmol or above and I’m reaching up to 12mmol during the day sometimes (not always but every other day it’s going high) .

My question is how can my glucose have changed that much in a year and would you say this sounds like diabetes??

Your best bet is to try and get in touch with the GP again and ask for an HbA1C. Use e-consult or Klinik, far easier than waiting on the phone, and request a blood test that way
