had my 3-monthly A1C test andam back to 5.7 so i feel reassuredmy last one went up to 5.9 after a year at 5.7 which isnt technically a big deal but quietly felt like some kind of small failure psychologically anyway we back

I don't know why I called this the diabetic thread, rather than the diabetes thread.
I'm right there with you...maybe. I did my first home-test in three weeks the other night with some apprehension--I've put 10 of the 25 pounds I lost back on--but it came in at 5.7. I've really let the three-month timeline slide, though. I'm going to go in tomorrow morning for my first A1C since November. I always home-test under optimum conditions, so we'll see.

5.9. There's been a gradual uptick the past year, but still good:
03/13/23 - 5.707/19/23 - 5.711/06/23 - 5.804/12/24 - 5.9
I've been advised to supplement my Vitamin D intake, which doesn't surprise me; I've all but cut out dairy the past 18 months, just almond/cashew/soy milk with cereal and some yogurt.
