[QUOTE="Rustytypin, post: 1934831, member: 344185"] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=4]Hi [USER=496441]@Nos[/USER] , firstly welcome to the Forum, tagging [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] for the useful info sheet; to answer your point re morning BS level, it sounds like the Dawn Phenomenon where your liver ups your glucose level in order to give you a good start to the day, although 6 and over is considered a little high. Having said that your HbA1c is within the normal range for non diabetics. With regard to your after meal levels up to 6.5 isn't bag, but depends on the pre meal level, you should look for a rise of not more than 2 at the 2 hour mark. Your holiday levels are probably due to your muscles clearing the glucose from your blood stream due to the increased activity over your usual. It may also be due to a change in diet, perhaps less carbs on hols? Not too sure regarding the cholesterol thing, I tend to ignore all the hype surrounding "high cholesterol " as most is made in the body as it is needed. Tagging [USER=94045]@Bluetit1802[/USER] who is far more knowledgeable than me regarding ratios for trigs, HDL etc. [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
