Found out my last result was 7.0 after getting a 7.5 yippee. Can anyone tell me if this still means I am diabetic or not. Your help is appreciated. PS have got to see doc tomorrow anyway for this and also for BP as it is way too high :( Just want to put my mind at ease.

Rude people! Not being able to do the things I want to do.
Sorry Claire, once a Diabetic always a Diabetic !

You can however become a very well controlled Diabetic, some even get their Hba1c level down to a non diabetic number BUT they are still Diabetic !

Doctors like to see Diabetics with a BP on or below 130/80 to help prevent complications.

Ah boo. Was trying to look on the bright side!!! Oh well at least I have support on here and from my hubby. Hopefully the doc will sort out my BP - last reading was 153/126. Will let you know tomorrow :?

just a quickie about blood pressure, make sure whoever i taking it uses a correct size cuff, if you have a larger than average arm and they use a regular cuff not the large maroon one it will give a falsly high reading.
