[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 1167464, member: 88961"] Well, I've pretty much had 3 monthly HbA1c tests since diagnosis. My first, 4 months post-diagnosis, came back at 37 (5.5%) and moderated down slightly further since. My stats are in my profile. I'm hoping I can continue to report maintaining my turnaround (whatever you want to call it) for many years to come. I have never taken any medication. There are several on this forum with similar results, with folks like [USER=96315]@andcol[/USER] showing even better results than me. Personally, I don't care if we call it cure, reversal, remission or Doris. It's only a name. What I want is to keep my good health and live a fruitful life for a long time to come. I can't see much point is stressing or rowing over a name, it only raises tension, but doesn't influence how our pancreas works or how we approach our diet. I have been removed from my practise Diabetes Register, but as someone remaining "At Risk", I will continue to have HbA1cs at least annually. I have also had 2 retinopathy screenings since I was removed from the register, so would say my preventive care is continuing. Thanks, good old NHS. [/QUOTE]
