Hi all, I haven't been here for a really long time because life kind of got in the way for a while. To be honest I didn't really have anything to update from a diabetes point of view, but I recently had my a1c tested, for the first time since I was told I was prediabetic last August. I've lost a few stone (nothing since last October though) and been taking metformin since last October. I've not been able to do much exercise though as I had surgery last November and another 3 times since then and have been off work sick most of the time since then. I'm seeing a physio though and working towards getting more active again. I'm having more surgery on a couple of weeks, but hoping to get back to work in May...and get on with my life! I found out recently that I do have PCOS and I'm currently awaiting an appointment with a nephrologist - still seeing an endocrinologost and dietician etc, so I'm getting loads of input. And the result of all that is finally, my a1C is NORMAL (38).
Woo hoo! At least something is going well. My GP is really pleased with my progress too
