No its 62! And coming down rapidly.....my hba1c is nothing to do with what I eat....despite what others may think!

Need to update your signature!No its 62! And coming down rapidly.....my hba1c is nothing to do with what I eat....despite what others may think!
I will when I get access to a laptop!Need to update your signature!
I attend a diabetes support group and was told by one of the T1s "it's better for us. We just eat what we like and inject". I'm type 2. But that doesn't seem sensible. I read Bernstein's advice on reducing carbs and it makes perfect sense to me. You reduce the need for medication AND the risks of getting it wrong.
No. A strange way to put it, I thought. At a recent breakfast for the group I attended, they were all eating lots of carbs; and I'm sitting there with just bacon and eggs.I, personally, would never use the word 'better' in regards to having type 1
just bacon and eggs.
Oh! What a nice BS day you have there on show! I would put that in a frame...No its 62! And coming down rapidly.....my hba1c is nothing to do with what I eat....despite what others may think!
Of course it is - it's driven by what you eat and how much insulin you give, and all the other little things that affect our BSmy hba1c is nothing to do with what I eat
No its not! Mines down to my depression, if I'm depressed then I won't look after myself simple as....absolutely nothing to do with what I eatOf course it is - it's driven by what you eat and how much insulin you give, and all the other little things that affect our BS
No higher than a 7 especially if I have a great big Chinese haha! I don't drink sugary drinks anyway but if I fancy a can of Fanta then usually a 5 or 6!I'm on hba1c of 40. Breakie or Brunch of a weekend is variations of English breakfast without beans. Love low carb.
I had blood tests done for the MENO@@@@E (*** I'm way too young! But sadly yes)
The doc went down my results - he told me I was 'disgustingly healthy' and 'NOT DIABETIC'. I had to correct him.
I have dawn phenomenon in the bleedin extreme so I reckon if I didn't I'd have a hba1c even lower as I've cut out most of the 'normal and healthy' carbs. I need to take up drinking alcohol again.
Well done on reducing your hba1c @ohitsnicola what are your 2hour bs like after eating what you want?
Do you split dose it???Nice one. If I try and eat stuff like a Chinese I just roller coaster. I miss special fried rice!

I'm pregnant my last hba1c was 68 in December, I had another hba1c in January when I shouldn't have really and that was 62 my consultant said in reality I should be in the mid 50's! Yes I am having quite a few hypos but they're stopping now!I don't want to pry so don't answer if you don't want to; but how can that be the case? You have said that you have an Hba1c of 62 a the moment which means an average blood sugar of 9.9 mmol/ml
I appreciate that you have said it's dropping but that would mean worrying hypos?
Perhaps I've misunderstood?
Someone my friend knows was telling him about her type 1 diabetes and she said she's learnt to carb count and she's been told she can eat and drink anything she wants as long as she takes the right amount of insulin. So she will just drink full fat fizzy pop like Pepsi and Coca Cola 24/7. Surely that's harmful and she's been told wrong info?[/QUOT
same info I got but after doing my own investigating knew I'd kinda ignore my diabetic nurse on that!! she said I could have a full pack of sweets and would be able to cover it with fast acting insulin,ya ok then!!!! not currently taking insulin since oct of last year after been diagnosed type 1 after been taken in to hospital with dka.So even though not on insulin I've learn't alot to how my body reacts to certain meals,sweets an so on but if your friend is happy with how her diabetes is going then what can ya doNHS do need to change the way the give advice out imo.

Why am I being made to feel as if I'm lying????
In the same respect. I wouldn't suggest it was worse than any other type either...I, personally, would never use the word 'better' in regards to having type 1
