Celebrating a Small Victory with T2D

Not a question, but just wanted to celebrate a small victory with others who would understand. I'm 25 years old and was diagnosed with T2D at 18 (suspected MODY) and after 7 years I've finally gotten some control over this beast! A1C was 7.4 in November 2021, and it's now 6.4 with the help of metformin, humalog, toujeo, and a dexcom cgm!!

That's awesome! My dr has me trying out a pump soon since my other medications cause me foggy brain it would keep me from missing doses and all the shots

I have libre I love it . Couldn’t get my fingers to bleed for stick test so talk to my doctor about going to this. It cost more but I don’t have to stick 4-5 times before I drawl blood

Pisces, talk to your doctor. Also, you can go to their website and request a 10 day trial.

Congrats!! I love having my Dexcom, it's a game changer. Exercise also helps lower your number.
