Your Hba1c has gone down from 78 to 52 which is a great reduction, in old figures (%) that's 6.9.

Hi. 6.9% is quite good but if possible try to get it nearer to 6.0% if you can by means of carb reduction or meds (or both). Well done for the reduction so far

I have nurse appointment on June 10 to discus my results from yearly check. Cholesterol down from 5.5 to 3.5 my blood pressure always fine no problem there. Very pleased about my reduction on HBA1C to 44. I wonder if they will reduce my tablets currently on 2 x 200mg daily metaformin and 1 40mg simvastatin nightly.
