As how many other diabetics do we actually meet daily/weekly ?
Drive a tigra convertible so ?Anna please try to stay on topic, we are talking about mitsubishis
None who admit to it at least. Here EVERYONE admits to it, we are all in the same boat, albeit a **** big boat!
The Diabetes Forum is the UK's largest diabetes forum with over 80,000 members. Members find support, ask questions and share experiences.
A survey conducted in November 2013 proved the effectiveness the Diabetes Forum, revealing that membership resulted in:
Keep in touch with the DCUK forum on the go, search for Diabetes Forum on Google Play or the App Store.35.2% of members having an improved HbA1c
54.4% of members having improved their diet choices
71.4% of members having an improved understanding of their diabetes
44.1% of people having improved blood glucose control
48.3% of people having improved their ability to cope with their diabetes
48.5% of people having improved confidence in managing their diabetes
Surely if 44.1% have improved glucose control then they must have improved their HBA1c results and yet the stats for that are 35.2%
Can you explain that to me?
Anyway, whatever the stats reveal I think it is the fact that diabetics can talk to other diabetics and share information that makes a forum a must.
Diabetes is a very lonely place to be if you cannot offload because your peers and family don't get it most of the time.
Well, HbA1c is an "average" so if your HbA1c stayed the same but you had fewer hypos and spikes then your control would be perceived to have improved but your HbA1c had not.
As the meerkat says "simples"
