Hi John, remember that your hba1c is measuring the amount of sugar carried on your red blood cells over an average three month period, for now concentrate on your Fbg and readings before and after meals, these will help you with what foods you can tolerate. I also use mysugr app but my hba1c reading at the doctors is never the same as what the app is reading so be cautious until you know how accurate the conversion you are using is. Take care, jo

Hi everyone

I am being tested for diabetes as my bloods came back as 12. I have lost a stone In weight constantly neaseous, pins and needles, sugar in urine. What I am concerned about is the fasting test I have on Wednesday, I wake up around 2-3 in the night shaking, i also have acid reflux so drink some Gavison which stops the shakes. do you think this is correcting my sugar levels and if so what will happen if I don't take it
 
Hi Babsie. As far as I can tell Gaviscon contains no sugar or glucose.
