Unfortunately it’s not in the right direction.
7.3
A number of years ago I would have been thrilled with an A1C like that, but now that my control has been pretty tight for a while, it kinda sucks to see it go back up into the 7s.
I guess that’s what happens when I spend the two weeks prior to my A1C test on holidays, and the two weeks prior to that sick with a nasty flu.
It’s going to come back down. Pinky-swear.

i am working hard to get under the 7′s. my last was 7.7 so hopefully in oct. i will see a number under that! i know how you feel though, you work hard at doing the “right” thing, and stupid D has other plans.

All the best getting yours down too, Kim!

Holidays and sick are two things that PWDs cannot do without any backlash. The fact that you did both in a row is even more extreme. I wouldn’t worry. You’ll get back in your normal habits and you will be right back where you are supposed to be.

Thanks for the encouragement, Shaun! I think you’re right.
