Just had results from my latest blood test - Hba1c has gone from 120 in April (at diagnosis), then to 65 in Jun, and now sits at 38! Needless to say I'm pretty pleased with this, and my diabetes nurse was stunned! I am still on Metformin so know this has helped get down to this level, but I have been put on a reduced maintenance dose now with a view to coming off of it. My B12 levels are low, so GP is talking about stopping Met to see if this helps, or maybe explore a different option (my guess is B12 injections). Diet change and exercise from day of diagnosis seems to be helping so will stick at what I'm doing. Just been contacted by Oviva about signing up to their Diabetes Support programme but not sure I'll gain much from it now...any advice on this?
Thanks.
Thanks.
