hi
i have just been given my fasting results as 6.9. what does that mean to me? im not seeing my g.p until next week. can this be managed by diet alone?
also, am i not to have any sugar/glucose at all?? or can i have some?
does this result mean im diabetic? or borderline ? im so upset. im very overweight and since november i have lost 10kg in weight and im swimming nearly everyday for 45 minutes and go to the gym about 4-5 days a week for 40 minutes if i continue with this regime does this mean i can keep diabetes at bay? sorry for all the questions its just im in shock , im so upset.
any advice would be extremely appreciated. also would i benefit from a home glucose kit at this stage?
thanks
