Re: What are your H test results?
Thanks for telling me that James, here I was trying to prevent my complications getting any worse so that I do not go blind after getting severe retinopathy, and I thought I was doing well getting my A1c under 7, as the opthalmologist recommended, that has really cheered me up now.

If you mean your HbA1c was 7.1% then you're bang on target. Check out the converters on this site. Mine was 9.3%, or 78 mmols/mol.
i think you must be misinformed. If your A1C is 7.1% - you are almost 100% going to develop complications, probably within only a few years.
