Just had my second HbA1c test since diagnosis.
It's gone up to.... 39 from 38! It was 73 on diagnosis.
However this could be down to the following:
- A few beers during the world cup.
- A few ice creams and french baguettes on holiday in France.
- I was on antibiotics for a week last month.
However, the bad news is my weight has crept back up to 91kg from 87! But I haven't been swimming in ages due to having a cold and no doubt excessive holiday treats didn't help!
My GP reduced my Metformin dose to 500mg x2 daily. However I haven't taken any since April as the side effects didn't agree with me and I wanted a chance to improve on diet alone! Can't wait to tell her when I see her next week.
I have no idea what the other figures on my results mean (below), however they all appear normal!
