[QUOTE="Lupf, post: 2271998, member: 518059"] I noticed that I posted this [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/how-reliable-are-hb1ac-tests.172402/page-3#post-2270649[/URL] in the wrong thread, so here it is again The plot thickens. First the good news: I managed to lose that couple of pounds I wanted to and keep it off; I am back at the same weight as before Christmas. The good weather helps as I do lots of cycling. I am also having online physiotherapy sessions for my shoulder, so fingers crossed on this front as well. With my weight my blood sugar levels - before breakfast - came down to about 6.0 mmol/l again. This was at the beginning of May, so I was rather pleased. Then something happened for which I don't have an explanation. About a month ago my pre-breakfast levels jumped up to about 7.0 mmol/l on average. First I thought it was a blip, but by now it has stayed around that level for five weeks. The graph of the data literally looks like a step function of +1.0 at the beginning of May. I honestly do not recall changing anything at this time. Due to Covid my routine has been more stable than ever. Hence I am at a bit of a loss of what is going on. Any ideas anyone? I also started to measure BS levels 2 hours after breakfast or 3 hours when I am stuck in meetings. While I need to do more measurements, it looks like my post brandial levels increase by 1 to 3 mmol/l. I hear that up to 2 is ok, but how bad is 3? [/QUOTE]
