Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Diabetes / March 2008Yet another good number
I'm just as pleased as can be. over the past three months, I relaxed my vigilance a little, and expected my A1C to rise somewhat. I went for the blood work last Friday, and to the doctor this morning. He asked what I thought my A1C was. I said that it would be higher than it was in December (5.1), but still significantly under 6. It was 5.1.  SignatureLarry, T2, Saskatchewan, Canada. DX 24 Aug 07.

Thanks to all for the encouraging words. It's good to have advice and pointers to research and news articles, but what really makes this forum worthwhile is the support.

As I have said many times, what I did wouldn't have been possible without the support of Lynn, and the people here. SignatureT2 - Oct.

I went [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > >It was 5.1. G'day G'day Larry, Well done. A 5.1 is excellent as I'm sure you're well aware. "Relaxing vigilance" is an interesting phrase. It could mean all sort of different things to different people. Perhaps you've eaten foods you didn't eat back in December. Perhaps you've done less exercise. Perhaps you've just been feeling more relaxed. Stress releases cortisol like compounds and these can push up blood glucose levels. So being relaxed could actually help bring them down. Whatever. The essential point is that your A1c was excellent and is likely to remain so, so long as you don't get careless. Best wishes and congratulations. Success encourages others to succeed.

When I say I relaxed my vigilance a little, I mean to say that I did not test as often, because I felt that I had quite a good handle on my tolerance for various foods, both in timing and portion sizes. I have also started treating myself to some things that I would not eat at all back in December, but now feel confident enough, and have enough will power to strictly limit portions, to eat them occasionally. >Best wishes and congratulations.
