Hello
I am T2, text book readings for 6 years, since diagnosis. Then 2 years ago, they slowly began creeping up. Then, following the death of my Mam in early 07 and being made redundant in early 2008 - the readings snowballed. My GP (who is the practice diabetic doctor) changed my meds, more than once, but still the readings are not what the should be, at worst my HBa1c was
11.7, now back down to 10.1 - but she is now referring my to the local hospital diabetic unit.
Don't know what to expect - but I think insulin could be on the cards.
Has anyone else encountered something similar. I would appreicate any thoughts or comments.
Many thanks
