Improving

[samsmeat]

Hi

Diagnosed in April.
HbA1c- 67
Cholesterol - 7.1

Phoned GP today for my blood results and hard work paying off.
HbA1c now at 57
Cholesterol - within normal (receptionist didn't tell me the numbers had to insist on HbA1c numbers initially said its improved and managed by dietician).

Happy with results as I think its a good improvement. GP only started me on satins on Monday so thinking I do not really need to take them now. As for BS dietician had said she would want me started on meds if not below 53 but hoping 57 is close enough. Next appointment with dietician is a couple of weeks away...so just gonna keep fighting against the screams of chocolate and all the other temptations.

This site and its members have proved so helpful with endless information, advice and encouragement. Thanks

Sam

That's a good reduction in just 3 months @samsmeat, well done!
Keep up the good work and your bs figures should continue to fall.
