My systolic blood pressure is in the “pre-high blood pressure” range, this puts me at high risk of developing high blood pressure. I am at currently at risk of heart disease, breast, and colon cancer due to eating foods high in fat, especially red meat. My total cholesterol is 173 pounds, and HDL is 64 (moderate risk) and LDL slightly high at 100. Due to close relatives with diagnose of diabetes the risk assessment reported that I have a greater chance of getting type 2 diabetes. I was diagnosed recently with type 2 diabetes mellitus, my HgbA1C was 8.6 and fasting glucose 146 on 9/11/2015.
