So had my appointment at the clinic today and saw a really lovely nurse (for once!)
She went through my results and was literally picking her jaw from the floor! She couldn't believe I have gone from 123 to 42 in 8 months! I have lost over 4 stone in that time also! She really cheered me up!
I told her I was disappointed I was not in the 30s but she explained the even hab1c is not perfect and I might well be. But she told me to go polish my halo lol.
Interestingly she was shocked I hadn't been offered a meter on diagnosis since I was so high but she was really open to hearing how it had been done. So I explained I had been given amazing advice from you lot. So thank you all so much for helping me with this. I feel really pleased today.
One thing came up though since I have ulcerative colitis, theres a link to being T1. A little confused... Anyone been told the same thing?
