I have been on LCHF since probably June of 2017 after being diagnosed T2. I got my A1C down to normal levels, no meds, blood tests good, chol levels good, lost 55 pounds. Then on my last blood test results my A1C went up from 5.5 to 7. Why? I admit, over the summer I did eat two or three things not on Keto, like a very small hot fudge sundae, but that shouldn't have made a difference since it was only the once. Since the season change my mood/stress levels have been very erratic/high. I had my blood work on Sept. 24. My BG readings have been up and down this past month or so, too. I almost forgot, in May I had a bleed and my hemoglobin went from 135 down to 85. Almost low enough for blood transfusions. It's now back up to 134. Scopes showed nothing, except some stomach lining inflammation. I also had bariatric surgery 38 years ago, which might account for the blood loss/inflammation. Could these fluctuations be from the stress and maybe too much cortisol from stress, not to mention the low hemoglobin? It's very frustrating because I'm working at this so this also stresses me out. Any tips would be very much appreciated.
