Hi All
have had three year checkup today .. not much to report as blood tests arent back yet but lost 1kg since last year which is a bonus as i thought i had probaly put a few on but still need to lose 4 kg. Last hb1ac was 5.7 so hoping around the same but think more like 6.1 or 6.2 according to meter. BP was 124/82 which she said was slightly high . Hoping for a reduction in cholesterol which was 5.5 on last one and 4.4 on the one before that. She said i might have to go on statins otherwise. Anyone her on statins and thoughts would be welcome, is 5.5 very high for cholesterol as she said the ratio for good to bad was good but not an expert on any of this!!. asked about a change from lantus to levemir and she said see consultant but was slighly against it i feel. No problems with all the other tests with feet etc ..
I hate waiting for the results for the blood tests :crazy:
Cheers All
