Here's an interesting sum. Remember that the Hba1c is an "average" of three months.

98 Assumed.
98 Was wasn't first Hba1c and I will assume that the month before was the same.
23 This is what you would have to achieve in order to get an average of .....
73 after only one month.

Sorry, maths was never my strong point. Could you elaborate, please? (Please, fingers crossed that there was an actual drop in the numbers because if there wasnt then I totally give up.)

It means that if the information you gave in your post is correct then there has been a stunning drop in the numbers. If you continue like that and have another Hba1c test four weeks after the last one then you can expect it to be 48 and that one after that very low indeed.

Phew! Thank you. I have been working very hard on it and apart from a couple of wobbles I thought I was going to halve my numbers by the next test which I should have in the next few days. Halve the 98, I mean or as close to half as makes no difference. No wonder the DN was full of praise!
