No longer diabetic-----YAAAAYYY!

  • Popular Post

Hi all. I just received my 6 month post-op bloodwork results. My hemoglobin A1C is down from 8 pre-op to 5.6!!! I was in disbelief when the doctor told me. I was expecting it to be good, maybe in the 6's but was just floored to hear 5.6. I was down to just Metformin since the surgery and he took me off that now too. He said my diabetes has fully reversed itself and that I no longer have to classify myself as a diabetic.

I am so thrilled with this, I just had to share my good news.

Thank you for sharing this - I hope to, one day soon, post my own NSV over diabetes!
