Morning! Thanks Girls!
There is absolutely NO reason other than my age ......... she didn't ask about family history, nor what we eat/drink/exercise ......... I took the 1st tablet this morning and then saw a grapefruit
- haven't eaten one for years but OH did I fancy it. [tripe is made to be avoided IMHO ;-) ]
What the GP told me is that because we age the risk goes up and 'so far your diet hasn't altered the reading in 4/5 years' ........ surprisingly, Himself wrote to our GP [Practice Owner] as his level is raised, and on the back of some questions that he asked, he's been advised to lose weight, exercise more and alter his diet ....... neither blood test was done, as NHS Guidelines suggest, after 12 hours of fasting
.
Damned if you do, damned if you don't and we can't even be a 'double blind study'
Snoooze - what did your sister's GP suggest - I was told that there are several different tablets to try
