| | | 6 Month A1C
Got good news today - my bloodwork from my 6 month check up came back with an A1C of 6.5! I was 11.8 six months ago, so I'm super happy with the results. Thanks to everyone here for all the support and information that has lead me in the right direction to achieving this awesome A1C!!!
