Hba1c of 43

Which has moved me very slightly into pre diabetic so need to keep a careful eye on that, I have been stressed recently for various reasons and unfortunately eating a bit more of the stuff I shouldn’t. Not the end of the world but something for sure to monitor

will speak with my nurse about whether to get back to metformin is on the cards whilst also keeping an eye of what I do food wise.

All okay though, and a salient lesson that it’s not a cure and lifelong changes are needed
 
Good luck getting back in a lower BS.
My HbA1c crept up during covid, but only to 40 (from a low of 32), so I am reviewing my snack habit.

Yeah, I suspect I had covid during the period (tested negative lateral but my partner who only saw me did test positive) and I remembered tattoos cause spikes in my sugars so there are other things going on perhaps

but not wanting to make excuses, my snack habits need to be checked for sure
 
I think your HbA1c creeping up is less of a worry if there has been reasons you can recall that would be the cause the rise. You can do something about it. Well done on getting through this troublesome period in your life with only a relatively small increase :)
