Im sure this doesnt really matter to many people, but unpon my diagnosis with Type 1 on February 29, 2009 my A1C was “12.6”. 3 months or hard work here I am to find out about 5 minutes ago that my new A1c is “5.2”
Finding out that I had diabetes has been something that I am reminded of multiple times a day and being able to have a normal A1C shows that I will control this disease and it will not control me. Today is the first time since I have been diagnosed where I can comfortably say that ‘diabetes is my ■■■■■’
Just remember that things may get a bit more difficult once your honeymoon is over, so don’t stress too much if your A1C raises a little bit over the next year or so.
