So, I cut out the Empagliflozin 4 months ago and, a few days later, attended Desmond's where the dietician suggested I chill out with the diet. Her rational being that since I was concentrating on my HBA1c as oppose to instantaneous BG levels, I could afford to eat chocolate cake and other delicacies providing, over the 4 month interval between test, I maintained the overall balance. Of course, I immediately went out and bought a delicious chocolate cake.
Anyway, I had some good news over Christmas, and, combined with my more relaxed diet, fully expected this particular HBA1c result to be up in 70 mmol/mol range. As a result, you can imagine my surprise when I logged in to get my results I found my HBA1c to be 36 mmol/mol.
I am obviously going to have to work harder on my blood pressure, which is an ongoing struggle, but overall, recognising I have been a very bad boy over the last four months, I am extremely surprised at my best result so far.
