Type 2 Diabetes Talk

106: Diabetes Q&A #9: Meter Reading Differences, Illness & A1c, Thyroid Connection, Glucose-to-A1c, Fasting Variations, and More


Listen Later

In this Q&A episode of Type 2 Diabetes Talk, Dr. Jedha answers questions from the DMP Community. Why do meter readings vary so much, even when testing just minutes apart? Can illness or thyroid problems affect your A1c? How do you deal with a spouse who refuses to eat vegetables? And what about dietary cholesterol, should you really be counting milligrams each day?

You will also hear practical insights on what an average glucose of 8–9 mmol/L (144-162 mg/dL) means for A1c, how to understand UK A1c results like “42,” why fasting numbers can fluctuate even on the same meals, and how to lower A1c if exercise isn’t possible. These are real-life situations that so many people struggle with, and you will walk away with strategies you can put into action.
