Visited GP a few weeks ago mentioned didn’t feel right but couldn’t put my finger on what/why, checked by BP it was through roof, weigh/height done and blood tests ordered for following week, I left with a prescription for BP medication. Had results of bloods and told diabetic and make appointment for diabetic nurse, seen her Friday my results were habc1 was 50 and cholesterol 5.7, had another lot of bloods done and if same or higher then they’ll start me on medication, I get the results tomorrow. So I’ve read fast800 book and I’m doing 16/8 fasting, early days but I hope I can reduce my numbers without having to go on medication. Any tips/advice for newly diagnosed novice?
