Hi All. Looking for some advice as I'm a little confused by the conflicting information I'm receiving. Yesterday I went into Lloyd's pharmacy for a dinner prick test. I had fasted in the most part but had had a decaffeinated coffee with one sugar approx 90mins before the test. My reading was 5.5mmol which the pharmacist said was fine however what I've read on the internet suggests I'm actually not classed as pre-diabetic. I'm really confused. I'm not overweight I'm fairly active (walk about 8 miles a day) but I do like sugar and carbs unfortunately. Please can someone give me some advice as to what I should do next. Will the coffee have made much difference? Thanks in advance Emma x
