[QUOTE="phoenix, post: 309211, member: 12578"] That's correct, the levels should be determined by a lab test though, not from a finger prick. In fact if there are symptoms then only one fasting test over 7mmol/ l is necessary for diagnosis. Very recently the HbA1c test has been accepted as a method for diagnosing diabetes. more details of both the new HbA1c criteria and the older criteria here [url=http://www.diabetes.org.uk/About_us/Our_Views/Care_recommendations/New_diagnostic_criteria_for_diabetes_/]http://www.diabetes.org.uk/About_us/Our ... diabetes_/[/url] [/QUOTE]
