    Relief at HbA1C result

    I just got my first HbA1C results 3 months after being diagnosed with Type 2. I have gone from 9.5 m/mol to 5.6 mmol. Feel relieved that all this dieting and cutting out carbs has worked. Thanks to those of you who have supported me and given me advice along the way.

    Thank you for your replies. I don't know why he said 3 months at the initial diagnosis appointment and now is saying December, but I will phone again. I might end up asking for an appointment with another Dr just to get the form signed for the blood test.
