Hi all,
Had a chat with the diabetic nurse on Thursday who had asked me to keep a fortnight of before breakfast and before evening meal readings. I was able to give her a month's worth. Anyway she did a rough calculation based on my average and said it would seem my hba1c has come down at least 20 points ( I was 87) though obviously not exact until by next blood test in early September. They said I'm heading in the right direction but want to add to my medication . I'm on empagliflozin and normally they would increase that but due to having the one kidney will need to look at alternatives.
Though my weight was not an issue since June I've lost 9lb!
Question! How can they give a hba1c reading through by readings?
