Message: <blockquote data-quote="Robbity" data-source="post: 2292001" data-attributes="member: 93179">His figures are similar to mine have been since  diagnosis as T2 over six years ago - 40-43 is  low end of pre-diabetic, which as an ancient OAP is my personal (and easily achievable for me) target  range; occasionally it's  popped up to 45 if I'm not well, in pain, stressed... I do regular pre & post meal (self funded) finger prick tests, which tell me far more about how  various foods (and possible health issues) can affect my glucose levels than an HBA1c can ever do.In general what T2 diabetics & pre diabetics can achieve depends on what their bodies can cope with, what other health issues they may have, and how strict a low carb diet they are able to maintain long term. For official UK recommended target ranges check our main site here: <a href="https://www.diabetes.co.uk/diabetes_care/blood-sugar-level-ranges.html" target="_blank">https://www.diabetes.co.uk/diabetes_care/blood-sugar-level-ranges.html</a>  I was initially tested at six monthly intervals, now it's annually.</blockquote>
