[QUOTE="Donnadoobie, post: 988539, member: 199062"] Just had my Hba1c results today. I was really hoping it was going to be in normal ranges but I'm just over at 43. This year I had a reading of 49 in March and 46 in my second test three weeks later so I should be pleased that it has come down to 43 but feel upset. My Cholesterol has risen from 5.6 to 7.6, I was expecting a rise but not that much. She said that as my weight has dropped and my blood pressure was lower than before I still came just above the 10% risk so was not suggesting statins but needed to keep an eye on the Cholesterol levels. She suggested eating porridge for breakfast but I told her that put my sugar levels up. I asked about the breakdown of the results but she didn't really answer and was very vague. Can I ask for a print out of the results? Is there anything I can do to reduce my Cholesterol levels while low carbing? Any supplements that help? Feeling deflated [/QUOTE]
