[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 1083162, member: 94045"] Have you mis-typed the 4.8, or misunderstood? A fasting blood test of 4.8 is perfectly normal. (The 9.9 is a bit more dicey depending on when and what you last ate.) Do you mean 48? It is important you get this right. If it is 48 it sounds like an HbA1c test and would just tip you over into diabetic. Under 48 is pre-diabetic, 48 and over is diabetic. I suggest you ask for a copy of your blood test results (computer print out) as this will have all the details and will be invaluable to you further down the line for comparisons. [/QUOTE]
