Hello,
I had Gestational diabetes with both my children and am on the radar now for monitoring. I've had a blood test and my HBA1C result came back as 61.
I've only been given a result and no advice as yet.
What a GP friend has advised is that I "lower it" as another high reading will mean I'm diabetic.
Prior to the test I had been using a libre arm scanner and found EVERYTHING raised my blood glucose and I never had a reading below the high 7's except for when I had a lot of red wine. In spite the high readings, they'd lower after 2-3 hours.
If I manage to lower my hba1c levels but my BG readings are still high, what does this mean?
