New HbA1c

Found out my new HbA1c this week, 5.8% !!

I'm well chuffed, down from 9.5% in april.
the nurse was slightly concerned as she thought it meant i was having too many hypos, but 1/2 per week, which i can recognise easily and treat are acceptable to me, and she was happy with that too. And she said i probably had the lowest A1c in clinic.

just wanted to share my good news with you guys

Top of the class. I would imagine you will be the envy of everyone on this forum. Me, I'm envious already. Perhaps you will change your username now?

I'm soooo jealous!!!

I'm aiming to have a similar result myself when I finally get my next a1c done (I wonder if my doc has forgotten me?!). Reckon I'll make the 6s - but I almost drool at the possibility of being in the 5s.

WELL DONE!!!!!!!
