Hi everyone. I am 55 years old and getting ancious. Do you know how accurate the finger prick test is ? I had this done after a night fast at the chemist and it was 7.8 , i am now waiting for the results from the doctor after a blood test. I have been boarder line diabetic .Also i had a sickness bug last week so could not eat for 2 days ,if i was now diabetic would i have been very ill. this is very confusing, Waiting for results from doctor seems like ages. The 2 hour fast was 6.5. These figures mean nothing to me
