My friend had her surgery cancelled due to high glucose readings (200 plus) Endocrinologist prescribed another med and she is clear to go next week. In all, she had to wait another month. As for getting the A1c down, take your meds, get exercise and stay away from sugars and carbs. Good luck.

I hope your doctor gave you some suggestions? If not, shame on them and maybe ask your regular doctor or a dietician?
