I was diagnosed with T2 in November 2023 with HbA1c of 62. I've been taking Metformin and eating low carb since then. Just got my results from blood test 3 months after diagnosis, and HbA1c is down to 39! I am well chuffed with that 🙂
 
Bravo! How brilliant

You have every right to be chuffed - that's a brilliant result. Maybe have a chat with your DN about the Metformin next?
 
Many congratulations! That is a really great result, especially considering it included the festive period. So pleased your effort has been rewarded and thanks for posting it as I know it will inspire others who are in a similar situation now to you back in November, just setting out on their journey with diabetes and probably feeling somewhat overwhelmed. It really does lift the spirits and give hope to people to read of such successes.
Best of luck on maintaining that great result.
 
Fantastic result!! You have every right to be chuffed :D
