[QUOTE="Peridot67, post: 1765225, member: 472480"] Hi everyone, newbie here, only recently (this week) been 'officially' diagnosed as pre-diabetic altough I have been trying to convince my GP of this for a while... following a blood test a few weeks ago, my Hba1c was 43. I have been testing twice a day over the past 2 weeks, first time in the morning and 1.5 -2hrs after dinner, and I average around 7.1 fasting and vary around 6.4 after meals. For 6 weeks or so I have been exhibiting strong symptoms. I have had one spike of 10.1 and one low of 4.4 in that period but have to wait another 5 weeks for a further blood test and another week to see the diabetic nurse at my GP practice. To further complicate matters, I had food intolerance testing yesterday and have discovered that I am also wheat and lactose intolerant and have chronic pain & fatigue from Fibromyalgia which I have had for >20 yrs... My blood sugar reading was 9.3 after dinner tonight.... I ate some nuts earlier today I wonder if this is why? [/QUOTE]
