[QUOTE="Paul_, post: 2648441, member: 578575"] Your story is fairly common here, I've seen a number of people saying they weren't informed of blood test results until they were full-on T2 diabetic. I'd suggest asking for some more information from your doctor. You need to know if that 2014 result was your serum blood glucose level (a point in time snapshot at the moment your bloods were taken) or if it was an hba1c result. Beyond that, if they've now confirmed you're diabetic, ask what your recent blood test result for hba1c was. I'd recommend registering for the NHS app if you haven't got it already. It's a bit of a faff, but you'll be able to look at all of your test results at your leisure on the app then, rather than being at the mercy of your surgery. [/QUOTE]
