I have been for a general check up at the hospital with all the routine checks which I wasnt looking forward to.... I have been struggling a lot recently feeling like im failing plus struggling to control my emotions but today has made me not feel like a complete failure 🙂 so I was diagnosed at the beginning of October with my hba1 at 12.5% today im 8.4% which is still high but loads better finally some hard work paying off but even better im now determined to get my next one even lower 🙂
 
That is an excellent improvement Ginnie! And I am sure the next one will be even better - keep up the good work, you're obviously doing things right! 🙂 As this test was only around two months since your diagnosis, it will also reflect an element of your prediagnosis levels as the tests normally cover a 12 week period, so you have done really well 🙂
 
Thank you the 12.5% was only 6 weeks ago so im really pleased I thought it was going to be another high one! I have been a bit ill the past couple of days and consistent high bs has wiped me out so I was in need of some good news 🙂
 
Well done on your result Ginnie! 🙂
 
Brilliant number Ginnie, keep up the good work

John.
