I have been back to the UK and had my test done:

my fasting results was 6.5
my glucose results was 5.6
(yes I have them the right way round)

I have lost nearly a stone in weight.

But my HbA1c is 10% Now I believe that is high...I have been diagnosed 3 weeks nearly 4 what else do I have to do to bring this HbA1c DOWN... I am SO peed off worked so so hard!!!

Thanks

David
 
Your HbA1c is a measure of your levels over the last 3 months, so when you have your next one, with all your hard work, it will have come down.

You're doing really well :thumbup:
 
Hi David,

Don't be put off by the results. They are very good! I am not an expert and would not pretend to be but I think that the the HbA1C is a culmination of your bloods from the previous 10ish weeks so if that is correct it might not reflect all the hard work you have been doing. I am sure someone will come along and put me right if I am wrong!

Well done. :)
 
Sorry didie - didn't see your post - didn't mean to repeat you! :)
 
totally agree,

keep doing what you are doing and look forward to your next one.

Imagine what it would have been without your intervention over the last few weeks
