My Life Interlude - Mary J. Blige

Blood test 21 July 2021.
Haemoglobin A1c level 7.4 % [4.0 - 5.9] Haemoglobin A1c level - IFCC standardised 57 mmol/mol [20.0 - 41.0]
Diagnosed Type 2 on 5 August 2021
No meds at the moment.
Second blood test 7 October 2021
Haemoglobin A1c level 6.5 % [4.0 - 5.9] Haemoglobin A1c level - IFCC standardised 48 mmol/mol [20.0 - 41.0]
Weight at diagnosis: 160 pounds (72.5kg)
Weight at last check: 141 pounds (63.9kg) - into healthy weight finally !!! 140 pounds (63.5kg) 135.5 pounds (61.46kg) 135 pounds (61.23kg)
Next check-up due in April 2022 - or maybe not ....
HbA1c blood test taken 23 May 2022 - DN appointment due 9 June 2022
RESULT from online records 25.05.2022: Haemoglobin A1c level - IFCC standardised (XaPbt) 45 mmol/mol - this, I presume, puts me back down into the PRE-diabetic range!

....................................
Also have:
COPD (Use Ventolin and Clenil), High Blood Pressure, Hay Fever, Fruit allergy, Weak tendon in arm, Damaged coccyx. Low platelets - Update: I've now been told the level is near normal now - maybe due to all the steroids I've had to take since December
Many food intolerances such as white processed bread (due to yeast not having enough time to make product edible before being baked), olive oil, peppermint oil, raw tomatoes, oranges - the list seems to grow continuously...... add on another type of hay fever med and lettuce

Train In Vain (Stand By Me) - The Clash

Diagnosed T2D in 2018 with a HbA1c of 88
HbA1c Hovered between 54 - 46 from that time for 3 years with full 2000mg Metformin dose...
...until NHS Low Calorie Diet started in May 2021 - Stopped ALL Meds incl. Statins (Statins may play a part again at some stage)
(Low Calorie Diet completed August 2021, and real food from then on)
I lost 20Kg and am now really happy with my weight at 57-58Kg (I'm only 5ft 4"!), and I feel fitter and way more energy than I have done in years!
HbA1c December 2020 - 48
HbA1c March 2021 - 47
HbA1c since NHS Low Calorie Diet started (Fully Food Based from August 2021)
June 2021 - 42
Sept 2021 - 37
Dec 2021 - 35
May 2022 - 39
Nov 2022 - 38
May 2023 - 39
October 2023 - 35
March 2024 - 39
June 2024 - 38
Nov 2024 - 41 - Well, I did break 3 ribs a few weeks before, and stress levels were high!
May 2025 - 40 - Stress levels still a little high due to moving house a month before! - Still in Remission!
Still Generally Heathly Balanced Diet, T-Plate Method, Physically active (Walking. Jogging (Running now!) Cycling), Remission Achieved!
