A1C

Just had my doctor friend get my A1C results for me.

7.2

I am very happy right now. I was hoping to break an eight this time- but was guessing that I would be somewhere in the low eights- so this was a big surprise.

Yeah me.

(Anybody else notice how slow Joslin is with getting back your results? Don't they know that two days after the visit I am at my mailbox anxiously awaiting that letter.)

awesome.

My doc does the in office A1c's and I dread going. I like the buffer ;)

Hey - I've been thinking of you with Gov. Dummer being in the news (am I confusing you with someone else?)

Thanks for visiting me. Fore!

Congratulations!!

Excellent job getting that A1c down!

You know, my son's endo does the A1c right in her office (we get the result within minutes)-- I'm wondering if one way is more accurate than the other... hmmmm... I'll have to ask next week when we go in.

Nice job on the A1c. I was at Joslin on November 1 and I still haven't rec'd my "confirming letter."

Of course I made the frantic call on November 3rd requesting my A1c. Apparently they don't know we're waiting oh-so impatiently for those results.

7.6% for me. Same as six months ago. Sigh ... plateau.

Congrats on the A1c!!! I plateaued at 8.1 for awhile but my last was 7.8 -- at least I'm moving in the right direction.

I like what my endo does on bloodwork. I go in 3-4 days in advance for the draw, the results are ready when I go back for my appt. We can then talk about it and make course corrections as necessary.
