Hi there, I just thought of sharing my hba1c, not to brag about it or anything. I'm at 5.6% / 38 mmol/mol. I used to be lower (around 5.1%) but was able to reduce the low blood sugar occurrences during the night in the last 6 months.
I've been with type 1 for the last 37 years, with Humalog and Lantus (for the last 20 years), eating 3 days per week (for the last 6 years), alternating vegetarian in winter and vegan in summer. Monitoring with freestyle libre. Currently 183 cm with 77 kg (6ft/170lbs), BMI 23.
Generally disappointed with doctors in all 5 countries where I lived. I appreciated one of them who told me that she has nothing to tell me. So she gave me the prescriptions and let me go. Ha!
I'm anxious about the long term effects that I have been trying to avoid for so long. With age, it becomes clear that at some point, they'll kick in. Good luck to everyone out there!
