[QUOTE="Alison Campbell, post: 1936186, member: 91555"] Hi Dawn welcome to the forum, I'm tagging [USER=25759]@daisy1[/USER] for her new member post to be added to this thread you have started. Her post will provide blood glucose ranges for different times. The blood glucose machine and HBA1C use different measurements plus the HBA1C covers the past 12 weeks ish where as when you test at home it tells you what your level is in that drop of blood, that second. With home testing with a blood glucsoe machine timing is important for example first thing. premeal and a set time post meal. Random tests are not comparable and so can't be considered improved or not. Lots of great information to read on the main website attached to this forum starting here [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/newly-diagnosed-with-type2-diabetes.html[/URL] We are a friendly lot so feel free to read around the forum and ask questions.
