Type 2s: What was your fasting blood glucose in a morning? (very low chat level)

[Rachox]

Hi all, I am a little confused! Diagnosed in Sept 17 and told I had hit just above the cut off of being pre into diabetic. told to manage by lifestyle and diet. HBA1c checked at doc's and nothing mentioned about checking it myself. Is this something I should have been advised to do?

Hi Meow, can I suggest you write your own post either in Newly Diagnosed here:
https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/category/newly-diagnosed.39/
Or Pre Diabetes here:
https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/category/prediabetes.40/
You’ll get a better response to your questions than hidden away in this fasting blood sugar thread.

Hope you get the results you deserve - what you post always looks good.

You should have seen them pre Metformin 18 months ago, it was hard to break into the seven barrier.

Bet you are glad you take it then? It is always good when something obviously works.

It has never given me a problem, no scours or nausea whatever with both types fast and slow acting.
