Had my blood test 3 months ago and it came back as 5.5.
I was then promptly taken off metformin and told I no longer needed it.
I wasnt very happy about this, the rebel inside of me kicked in and decided that if the doctors were not going to help me then I wouldnt bother to help myself for 3 months, in the hope that the numbers went up and they would put me back on the meds after my next blood test. Me thinking that I had been abandoned to fight this on my own, and that I could only survive if I was on medication.
Well, I had my test last week and its now 5.2.
I havent gone overboard in these past 3 months, but I have loosened the reigns on my eating habits and had more carbs and the odd cake, pack of haribos, some chocolate etc, so I cant understand how the numbers have gone down again.
The nurse seems to think my diabetes is now resloved, obviously as long as I continue with my more corrective eating habits and do not go back to old habits.
How likely is this do you think, and is a HbA1c of 5.2 considered to be a non diabetic state?
