Sdbai3's Journal, 24 September 2015

Went to the Dr. yesterday for my six-month follow up since being diagnosed with diabetes. I am down 62 pounds in the six months and my A1C dropped from 12.1 to 5.6. WHOOP!! He decided yesterday to take me off of my Farxiga (sp?) prescription. Still on the Metformin, but I go back in January and he says that if I'm still at this A1C level and keep losing weight, he will cut that dosage in half and then by the follow up after that, if I'm still the same, I will be prescription free!! I am SO excited. If I can get this mess beat within a year, I'm going to be SO excited. Definitely will be prayers answered for me! God is good, y'all!!

Hope you guys have a great day!

It's amazing how an illness puts a new spin on things - eating for good health and the weight loss just happens. Best of luck to you!

So exciting!!! I wish my patients were even half as good as you! But don't get discouraged if you do everything right and still have to stay on Metformin. By the time you have diabetes, a lot of the beta cells that create insulin are gone, and unfortunatley they don't regrow. (science needs to figure this out, as it would be the cure for diabetes). Anyways, keep up the good work, but remember that you have done everything right, so if you have to stay on metformin, blame it on your pancreas :)
