Hi

I would appreciate your thoughts...

End of May had operation, very stressed as thought cancerous, turned out it wasn't. Phew.

5 weeks later, lost energy, very fatigued

Hab1c - 100, six weeks later dropped to 77, September, 3 months later, had dropped to 42.

Contour plus Blue Readings now:

7.6. 7 day average

7.7. 14 day average

7.8. 30 day average

7.7. 90 day average

Minimal spiking of reading over 9

Thanking you in advance.

Hi,

Once you hit a number higher than the NHS value it is considered diabetic!

If the numbers are in control then there is another term for it?

The reading given here it it home testing?

Hab1c - 100, six weeks later dropped to 77, September, 3 months later, had dropped to 42.

What did the GP say?

When is your next HbA1C blood test.

Hi Sandy I appear to have a new GP who on reviewing December HbA1C commented "Treatment de-escalation may be required. " Since then Urine Test came clear. He clearly has not looked at my records. I think up to me to contact them for another HbA1C test.
