This pharmacy also offers diabetes screening.This test is normally performed after you have fasted from 10pm the night before. The test involves a finger prick of blood and the glucose result is obtained in a couple of minutes. This test WILL NOT tell you if you are diabetic, but after obtaining the result and a discussion about signs and symptoms we can establish your tendency towards risk of diabetes and can make a referral to your GP for a GTT (glucose tolerance test) if necessary.
There is a £4.99 charge for this service.
