โš ๏ธ Prediabetes is often silent. That is what makes it so easy to miss.

Your blood sugar may already be higher than it should be, even if you feel completely well.

The good news? Prediabetes does not automatically become type 2 diabetes. With early action, it can often be reversed.

In my latest article, I explain:

โ€ข What prediabetes actually means
โ€ข Who is most at risk
โ€ข Which symptoms to look out for
โ€ข The blood tests used to diagnose it
โ€ข What lifestyle changes really make a difference

Say it at the start.

โ€œIโ€™m worried this could be cancer.โ€

That one sentence tells us what you are genuinely concerned about and helps shape the whole consultation around what matters most.

You donโ€™t need to soften it or feel embarrassed about saying the word cancer.

When Dr Liz Oโ€™Riordan was diagnosed with breast cancer, she wondered exactly that.

But cancer care goes far beyond treating the cancer itself.

Your GP can help with mental health, side effects, family pressures, recovery, survivorship and simply being the person who continues to know you throughout the whole journey.

In this episode, Liz interviews me about what a GP can actually do before, during and after cancer.

Many health problems can develop without obvious symptoms. Waiting until something feels wrong may mean missing the chance to spot an issue earlier.

In my latest guide, I explain the health checks adults should know about, from blood pressure and cholesterol to blood glucose, cancer screening, vaccinations and mental wellbeing.

You do not need to obsess over every test. But understanding which checks may be relevant to you can help you make more informed decisions about your health.

Iโ€™m not offended if a patient leaves my consultation and asks AI another question.

But I would not recommend acting on that answer without checking it.

Give AI the full context. Tell it what your doctor said. Explain what you are unsure about.

Then bring anything important back into the conversation with your doctor.

AI can help you understand options, organise information and prepare better questions.

But asking it, โ€œWhat should I do?โ€ is a different matter.

In this clip, Dr Liz Oโ€™Riordan and I discuss where AI can be useful, and where it starts becoming risky.

Use it to inform your thinking. Donโ€™t hand over the decision.

Many people with high blood pressure feel completely well. They can work, exercise and sleep normally without realising their numbers have been raised for months or even years.

That is why checking your blood pressure matters.

In my latest article, I explain what the numbers mean, how to check your blood pressure properly at home, when repeated high readings need a review and which symptoms should never be ignored.

It also means earlier mornings, changing routines and the return of the coughs, colds and illnesses that can quickly spread through classrooms.

In my latest guide, I share practical advice for parents on sleep, vaccinations, common childhood illnesses, asthma and when to seek medical advice.

No panic. No overthinking. Just the key things to check before the school year gets fully underway.
