[QUOTE="badcat, post: 1506738"] Welcome to the forum Best thing to do if you are concerned that your sugars are running too high and / or that you are at risk of T2,then my opinion / advice re the best next steps is 1) get yourself a blood glucose testing set and test your blood sugars for a week or two to see what your fasting blood sugars, those before a meal and those 2 hours after look like. You can get a meter and strips fairly cheaply off amazon 2) if you get a pattern of high / low / unusual readings or are concerned for any other reason, then go to your gp armed with the results and ask for a hba1c test which gives a picture of the last 3 months Good luck [/QUOTE]
