[QUOTE="Katerinax, post: 2453180, member: 546602"] Hey! Well actually I asked the nurse how I go about getting my results, do I contact my gp or call the hospital? And she said 'no the hospital will contact you, you will most likely be brought back in to find out and discuss'? I did the test on the 28th September, so I thought November was a slightly long wait to find out but they haven't contacted me otherwise. I was only concerned about fastings as from everything I've read and been told fastings above 5.5 are considered prediabetic range. Mine were pretty consistently between 4-5.3 or so until the last sort of week or so. So I found it concerning that they have risen into that range despite ingesting less carbs and sugar. It worries me that I could be creeping towards T2 diabetes with nothing I can do? Regarding the weight loss, I wouldn't really like to lose any more weight, it is not my goal as I am a healthy weight, I am just trying to control my blood sugars better. I am just worried now as I was expecting things to clear up more now that I am stricter with myself, not rising fasting sugars. Is it typical to lose weight and experience rising fasting sugars? I never had a bad diet I just didn't control it as much as I do now and I've never been overweight [/QUOTE]
