I joined the forum 3ish years ago after being told I was diabetic (actually just checked and it’s been 12 years ago! Must have joined when hubby was diagnosed!) My hba1c was 50. I reduced carbs, went on a diet and after 6 months hba1c was 46 and I’d lost 3 stone. I think the lack of interest from my GP eventually made me stop bothering. A huge mistake. After that first check at the surgery, I was told they wouldn’t see me for a year and hey ho, they’ve never seen me since. So I’m back to square one.. well, worse. A recent hospital visit for a small operation meant I had bloods taken and my hba1c was 54. I’m lucky it’s not higher. I got so much help and support from you all before, I’m embarrassed to walk back into the forum, but I’m here and I know I’ve got to stay.
