Hi Ljc, no, he said my bloods were OK, the Iron was good but the sugar was slight over? Thinking about buying a testing kit tomorrow.
No, just said slightly over which has obviously worried me, going in for a check up for something else so will ask questions, what questions should l ask?

I’d ask what test they did - was it a random one-off blood sugar or was it an HbA1C test. The latter gives an average of your blood sugar over the last 3 months. I’d then ask the actual number you got. I’d then ask if you needed to take any action and if you need to have it checked again in a few months.
Thank you that's brilliant, going in on Monday. I've also got burping and can't sleep.

Hi @Robbi, welcome to the forum!
Very naughty of the GP not to provide some more context but hopefully it means that things are at a stage that can be rectified.
The questions above are a great start, it'd be likely that a change in diet and increase in exercise will be on the cards. Let us know how things go and if you have any further questions.

Hi, thanks for your message, yes of course.
Seeing Doctor on Monday, got some questions.
Hi, will know more on Monday.
