Morning all, bit late posting but we've been to see gp. Ron's hba1c is down from 50 to 46. She is making him an appointment for the memory clinic as short term memory is causing problems before he goes he has to do a fasting blood test . It could be that the problems are caused by the medication he takes but we don't know for certain. She did mention about statins as Ron's cholesterol is 5.7 but Ron told her that it's one of the medications he refuses to take .
