Message: <blockquote data-quote="TracyA" data-source="post: 106453" data-attributes="member: 23082">Ive just seen my doctor as I had bloods done last week for Hba1c so went to get my results.I was told they were horrendous at 11%,He said I'd more than likely been diabetic for a long time going undetected.I rarely go to the doctors as i dont really trust them due to problems with my youngest (long story) so i really had no contact with my gp so if i were ill,i got over the counter meds.Anyway,I now have to take x2 500mg Metformin instead of 1,and then he wants me to gradually go to 4 a day.He wants me to test my levels 3 times aday and hes hoping to get them into single figures soon,if not he will look into something else.I dont know what though,i didnt ask.He is also sending me to a group (DESMONDS) so i can learn alot of things that i need to know.Theres just so much to learn and to take in,its so scary. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /></blockquote>
