diabetes, type 2
"Besides the diarrhea, my experience has been great! I was diagnosed in July with an A1C of 11.2!!!!!!!! I self diagnosed, called the doc and told her I thought I was diabetic. Keep in mind, I never knew what an A1C was until that day I was pissed! When I asked my doc what my A1C  was in December, she told me 6, never EVER saying "Hey, you're pre-diabetic." They tried to also put me on insulin and I told them to kick rocks. 3 months later (2 days ago) my A1C is down to 6.7! Down 4.5 points! I'm hoping in 3 more months I can get it down to 5.5. That's my new goal."
