[QUOTE="AMBrennan, post: 246454, member: 37697"] Before saying anything else, I think that the first post-diagnosis HbA1c is perhaps not a good thing to look at - it will be much better for those (un-?)lucky enough to have a significant honeymoon period; so a good 1st HbA1c may tell you more about a person's luck than anything else. Having said that, my 1st HbA1c post diagnosis was 38 (5.6%) - quite a shock to hear double figures btw. I don't know HbA1c at diagnosis since I had the classical DKA symptoms and a blood sugar of 25 mmol/l. [/QUOTE]
