First A1C!!!



A1C Comparison Chart

At my appointment last week I got my very first HbA1c result.  My number was a beautiful 6.5%.  was told the average A1C of a non-diabetic was 6.4% so I felt pretty darn proud of myself. Your A1C is basically like a report card to tell how well you have been managing your diabetes. Now I know that I am still in the "Honeymoon Phase" of type 1 and that my pancreas hasn't completely crapped out on me yet, but I have still been doing everything I possibly can to keep my blood sugars in control. Time to kick diabetes up it's backside for the next three months and see if I can keep it that way :D
