[QUOTE="Defren, post: 320541, member: 41817"] As a pre-diabetic I'm not sure the NICE guidelines Lucy referred to even apply. I would have done what you have and insisted, but I would also keep a good supply of strips handy. As a pre-diabetic we have told you, you must keep a close eye on your BG. You can't do that without strips. If your BG is going up then it's likely you will be diagnosed as a T2. As has been said already, apart from a script for Metformin, nothing advice wise is going to change. Keep the carbs low, if you are able do some exercise each week, and some personal advice that works for me, drink at least a liter of water every day. Why does being diagnosed mean so much to you? Once your in, there is no way out. Good luck, I hope your HbA1c comes back negative for you. [/QUOTE]
