HBA1C Result

Just wanted to say that last time when I went to the clinic, I was 8.4 - that was back in April.

I was told to come back in 3 months to give me time to try and lower it enough to be able to start trying for a family.

I went back to the clinic this morning and I am 6.6!

V happy indeed

Congratulations on getting your A1c down. I know that it's very important to keep it low when you're trying to have a baby. Keep up whatever it is you were doing!
