[QUOTE="JanineM, post: 584176, member: 116811"] Hi everyone, I'm absolutely sure there are lots of similar threads which I'm going to look through as well but just had a couple of questions. I have (I think) been diagnosed with Diabetes I had a routine blood test, which included one of those ones that detect sugar levels for the previous 3 months and it came back as 51 (which I understand is not all that bad?) What I need to know is am I right in that assumption? and if so what else should the Doctor have done at that point- she basically sent me home with a leaflet about diet and told me they would repeat the test in 3 months time. I also suffer with Multiple Sclerosis and have had Breast cancer so it's not like I'm new to all this medical 'stuff' but this to be honest is just tipping me over the edge. I'm glad to have found a great forum like this and will now try to read through the threads and see what else I can find out but would be grateful for any opinions in the mean time. Do I actually have diabetes or not? Thank you in advance :) Janine x [/QUOTE]
