Hi everyone. I’m still getting my head round the diagnosis but I am so glad I found this forum.
Just a few questions I’m hoping you’ll all be able to answer for me.
My HbA1c reading came back at 122!
My doctor said it should be below 47.
The medication he has put me on is Metformin 500mg once a day.
He also said that I don’t need to self test my blood.
Along with this he said I should contact the DVLA and my car insurance company.
Does this all sound normal ?
He’s told me to eat a low carb diet.
The diabetic nurse will be in touch. How long until she contacts me? Has anyone got an idea?
Thanks for reading this.
