Can’t sleep, too hot, husband snoring so thought I would post my results.
HbA1c up by just 1 to 44 which I am happy with, thought it would be higher as I have indulged more during the lockdown as I guess a lot of us have. Will be a bit more careful now though. All other bloods were within normal range other than triglycerides which were only .5 over normal, that’s due to too much animal fat in my diet. DN rang today for a catch up, she was rather pleasant which made a change. Said to stay on 2 Metformin a day which I’m happy to do, I don’t have any problems with them and to be quite honest it means I get all my other medication free which is a definite bonus. We even had a chat about my diet and agreed that it was difficult finding the right balance of low carb and not too much fat when you’re a fussy eater - all in all quite a nice chat.
Hope you are all in the land of nod unlike me!!
 
That`s a good result @SueEK well done. xx
