[QUOTE="Prem51, post: 1049070, member: 209498"] Hi [USER=256872]@doolallylady[/USER] and welcome to the forum! Your HbA1c reading of 49 was the same as mine on diagnosis, and after finding this forum I used the LCHF approach and reduced my reading to 44 by the 3 month retest. You are doing well with the weight loss, and I would think your BG is probably reducing too. I can understand your reluctance to start testing. I'm terrified of needles and resisted testing until after my 3 month retest. But then I realised I would not know how I was doing until my next HbA1c after 12 months unless I tested myself. It was a lot easier than I thought, I hardly feel it and it has been encouraging to see my readings go down. So just do it, it is a lot easier after the first time. [/QUOTE]
