    The results are in of my annual bloods (type 2 for 5 years). They’re all normal thankfully.
    I’m pleased with serum triglyceride of 0.93 (a year ago it was raised at 2.70) – just proves that excess weight is a nightmare!
    Serum cholesterol/HDL ratio is 2.5. Last year it was 3.6.
    HBA1C is 45mmol/mol – 6.3 (is this correct?) A year ago it was 57.
    There’s a note on the hba1c level stating type 2 general target is 48 to 59 – so am making an appointment for medication review. (I reduced the Metformin to half dose off my own bat).
    So I’m pleased with those. Very thankful that I discovered the BSD book – a new way of eating forever. 31lbs down and BMI down by 5 to 27. Keep on keeping on for now!!

    The more I study my on line results, the more confused I get. Technically i’m below the level of diabetes, going on the HBA1C of 45. The lab report states 48 to 59 as type 2 diagnosis. It also stated individual targets need to be set weighing up the risk of hypoglycaemia against cardiovascular risk. Im struggling to see a doctor though due to lack of appointments. So confusing!!
