Red Pumper

Well-Known Member
Relationship to Diabetes

I started on the pump (Stu) about nine weeks ago.

My last HbA1c taken before the pump was 9.3.

I had my HbA1c done on Monday and it is now 7.2!

As I'm only nine weeks in and an HbA1c covers approximately three months, if things stay as good as they are now, I reckon my next one should be below 7.

I am well chuffed.😉
 
well done red and stu ...love it :D great news
 
Great news Stu - well done!🙂Bev
 
Well done seems like the day for good news xx
 
thats what happened to me a few weeks in....yah go Stu!! x
 
Thanks folks.

Got my diabetic clinic appointment a week from now - so I'm quite looking forward to that.
 
Bloody good work! Good to see that. Here's hoping mine will have dropped that low in a few months time...

Thats great news Stu! 🙂 Well done!

Thats incredible work, the pump can only be as good as the person operating it in managing diabetes so credit to you! 🙂
 
That's great 🙂 do be careful though - it was an improvement like that that initially triggered my retinopathy, and I know you've had previous problems too. Make sure your eyes are checked regularly for changes!

My consultant said that eyes don't like rapid changes, so if you've been high for a long time, bring it down gradually. Unfortunately nobody thought to say that till it was too late! 🙄
