Good day UK - Yesterday (in California) I celebrated my 63rd birthday. I'm happy and grateful for all of you who participate in these forums. You keep me motivated to keep up the hard work. I have now been pre-diabetic for 13 years. When my first GP doctor told me of my diagnosis I had little hope of this kind of success. So did the GP. I've since changed GP's many times over the years. They all tell me the same thing. "Keep up the good work. Whatever you are doing is correct. See you in 6 months" They check my hA1c every 6 months for change.
My last 2 test were 5.9 and 5.8. I am still considered pre-diabetic if I am above 5.7.Happy belated birthday Jwongcsp
What is you HbA1c now?
Haven’t the GP not cleared you or said that you were you were non diabetic at any point in these 13 years
Thank you Salvia - I had dinner with my family.Terrific result, @jwongcsp, both on keeping your bg under control, and on your 63rd birthday; both things worth being happy about. Hope you celebrated in an appropriate way! (that is, you had a nice treat of some sort)
Best wishes to you
