Hello everyone,
Fantastic people and great side,
i have been reading and learning lots from you people, i am 41yrs and t2 since end feb/12, my Hbac1 was 14% since, started 2x Gliclazide 80mg. saw my DNurse on 5th march (lots of similar advice, nothing interesting) anyway strait after i got the news from Dr, i have started a diet, from 114 kg i have dropped to 109kg now andi check my BD one in the morning and one +2, in the morning are avarage 4.1 -5.0, +2 are usally 4.5 my 7 days avarage is 4.2, 14 days is 5.0 and 30 days is 5.8. i have another blood test at the end of may, the qouestion is this , if i carry on the way it is related to these figures what is my Hba1c could it be??
can anyone help? my Dnurse said that target should be 53 (i dont know what she meant :lol

Thank you everyone
keep up the hard work

Thank you KatieCat,
I think she meant the new measurement, she said should be 53 below.
also thank you for the converter but it comes up 2% 2.5% i dont know it seems un-real :)
 
Yeah, 53 is the new IFCC measurement of HbA1c equivalent as said to 7% on the old units for HbA1c. As far as what you'll get, you really need to wait and see. From what you say, it will be massively better than the 14% you had on diagnosis!Don't know where you got the 2% from, Think you're using the converter wrong there!
