Hi Guys
I ve been Diabetic now 16 years and i m 28 in a few weeks.I m type 1. My recent Hba1c was 8.4% and usually it s between 8-9. I dont drink
much a small bit maybe at weekends and i work out in the gym 3-4 times a week and have a low carb diet. I recently had my retina eye
screening and the result said i have backround retinopathy(Also had this result last year). I like to think my sugars under control and test myself
like 6 -8 times a day and record it on my diabetes book. I recently saw an interview with a girl who went blind from type 1 diabetes at like 25 and it scared the hell out of me. my doctors say i have my diabetes under control and i m doing good. Is there a chance that with a good Hba1c you can still go
blind at later stages in life? and should i be worried ?
