Non-Diabetic Hyperglycemia (Pre-Diabetes)

Some people have blood glucose (sugar) levels above the normal range but not high enough to be diagnosed as having diabetes. This is known as pre-diabetes or non-diabetic hyperglycaemia.

People with pre-diabetes are at greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes, but the risk can be reduced through lifestyle changes.

If you have pre-diabetes, you may be eligible for the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme. This helps people make lifestyle changes and has been shown to help prevent type 2 diabetes.

 

We will invite all patients on our pre-diabetic register to come in for a monitoring blood test every year.


Please keep your contact details up to date.


If your symptoms worsen please book an appointment.
