I was dx’d type 1 in December 2010 with an A1c of 11.5.
Today I got my latest A1c: 5.2!!!
Wooo-hoooo!!!
I know it’s not cool to brag, and I know it’s partially the fact that I’m in the honeymoon phase… but still. I don’t know anyone with diabetes, so no one else knows exactly how pleased I am! I wanted to share it with people who would understand.
That’s so cool that you were able to get such a great A1c result. Congratulations and keep up with what you are doing because it certainly seems to be working for you.
I did MDIs for about 2 months, I guess. I got to the pump fast because – cue a big swell of cheesy sad movie music – I am 39, female, and actually got diagnosed during a fertility workup. Turns out that gets you a pump right away.
Awesome! It’s important to feel good about your successes, because the more motivated you are to do well, the better off you will be in the long run! Keep it up!
