Hi @Rossi4658 and welcome to the forum. Your HbA1c reduction is good, but you need to try to get lower.
Below 42 is non-diabetic, 42-47 is pre-diabetic, and 48 and above is diabetic. You have done well to lower your readings.
Are you on any medication? What sort of food are you eating? A lot of us on here have found that a Low Carbohydrate High Fat (LCHF) approach to eating has reduced our blood sugar levels.
Have a read round the threads to see how it works and ask any questions you want. The people on here are friendly and supportive and you will get a lot of good advice.

To be a little more specific. It is good but on a scale on 1-10 I will give it a five. Please don't think I don't know what you are going through but it would be remiss of me if I didn't say there is, possibly, more you can do.
If you can give us more information as to what you have done so far then someone might be able to add value to what I just said.
