I have had some blood tests taken this week as my GP was concerned that the statins I have been put on for Familial hypercholesterolaemia has raised my blood glucose levels, I am diabetic type 2 but now in remission (I hope).
My GP wanted me to get the BG test in addition to the HBA1c and a variety of other tests this week as I am going abroad for 2 weeks from the weekend. He said the results to the BG should be back by Wednesday (had the blood test at the hospital on the Monday) I have checked the NHS App and the only one that appears is for my TSH level (which is normal) Am I right in thinking if I dont get a call, its probably not a bad result as I would have heard by now?
I am not taking any other medications apart from statins, (my doctor has told me to stop taking these as I am showing diabetic symptoms again (going to the loo at night etc along with pain in my back so he wanted to check liver function too) I am just concerned about going abroad without knowing I am OK, and although I have advised the travel insurance I am diabetic do I need to let them know about these new tests if the results having come back before I go.
I guess I just wondered if its odd to have only one result on the NHS app out of 9 tests taken on the same day and whether this is anything to worry about
