[QUOTE="sean401, post: 2309399, member: 530201"] I am overweight (BMI 38) and My H1c was slowly rising and crossed the line to 6.6 in January when I got my diagnosis. After talking to my doctor we decided I would try to lower it by working on diet. fast forward to 2 weeks ago and my fasting glucose at the blood clinic was 9.3 and my Hba1c was 8.6. I am not on medications and I am talking to my doctor about numbers in a couple of days. Lately in the morning my fasting glucose will be 10.2 or so on the meter. I have cut down my carbohydrates and am not eating a lot of sugar or anything. Are these normal for a newly diagnosed type 1? I am worried that my pancreas has been damaged somehow and isn’t working. My grandfather died of pancreatic cancer so that is always a worry. [/QUOTE]
