Hba1c of 5.6 from 14.1 in 2 years

I (M43) landed up in hospital 2 years ago with a Hba1c of 14.1%. I didn't know I had diabetes and found it out the abrupt way by spending 3 nights in high-care.

I got my results back of my latest Hba1c test today. 5.6%. I am over the moon. And I can only celebrate here because nobody else in my life knows what those numbers mean (beyond maybe as intellectual curiosity).

Metformin, Farxiga and 10% weight-loss. Minimal carbs.

I might not die as young as I expected 😁
