I've been diabetic for 20+ years. Unfortunately, I relied on the fact even under 7
may not be good enough for older like me 77 yo. I have nerve damage that docs
are puzzled with. Since I learned this I have cut out all sugar and sweets and wine. I have lost 8 lbs. The weight loss is fine, but should have done this years
ago. It is Sept or Nov for another neurology appt, Mayo Clinic after two doctor
referrals has not responded.

Thank you for taking time to reply to my question. I have not been eating anything with added sugar for awhile. I try to keep the numbers as low as I can and want to avoid creeping up to 7. This is very difficult for me because I have always had a sweet tooth. Fortunately I have not yet had any nerve damage and the diabetic eye test has shown my blood vessels there are great. Wish you luck in your continuing journey.👍🏻
