[QUOTE="BaliRob, post: 296905, member: 36236"] Bethan - your Hb1AC is high. I have been told that if mine continues from (6.9%) my doctor will consider using Insulin. Your Hb1AC would indicate that your sugar (average) levels have not been"fine" as you said. As far as your kidneys are concerned - kidney damage is insiduous and gives absolutely no warning as to their deterioration. The blood test to establish their status is to measure Creatinine which has a Ref Range of between 0.7 and 1.2 mg/dl for an adult. I have kidney damage which, if you are worried, can be arrested if caught early enough. Please make that appointment - it is the not seeing your doctor which is causing increased stress levels.
