| Heya Becky
Sending you big hugs.
I was diagnosed with diabetes at age two, until I was 16 my HbA1c was always between 7.2 and 8.9.
However my highest was 19.7 almost two years ago when my bulimia was at it's worst. Now I am slowly recovery from depression and an eating disorder, I am currently at 14.3. It's been a lot of hard work and really slow progress but it is so worth it. With my glucose levels so high I was extremely ill. I've been having inpatient treatment at an Eating Disorder Unit for the past 6 weeks and in that time my bloodsugars have gone from permanently above 20 to mostly 4.3-10.5. I feel so much better and can actually function somewhat like a normal healthy 21 year old!!
If you want to chat further or want any support please get in touch with me I know just how awful and isolating this specific mix (diabetes, ED and depression) of conditions can be.
Take care of yourself.
