Did a fasting blood test yesterday.

Did one today (same vein.)  Gotta say, the phlebotomists are better at anatomy, as well as having better equipment.  I haven't had to have more than a single stick that worked in years, and they've hurt less, too.   But the needles are noticably smaller as well, from what I remember 20 years ago.

Results today?  All good, except

Glucose, Fasting        Standard Range   60 - 99 mg/dL        Your Value   130


Shit.   I'm diabetic.

Starting HMR in 5 hours...(intake appointment, which is why the fasting blood sugar tests.)

EDIT:  Hmm.  It's dropped from the previous reading...advice from DR?  Go on the diet, retest in 3 months.  Also, blood fats better (HDL a little low).   Moar Exercise!
