4 Monitoring your DIABETES Regular checkups with your diabetes healthcare provider are very important. Checkups let you know how you are doing with your diabetes and if any changes to your care need to be made. There are several indicators used to measure your diabetes. In this article we will discuss the importance of your Hemoglobin A1C number. Hemoglobin A1c is a measurement of diabetes control over the past 2-3 months. Understanding your A1C numbers - Talk with your diabetes healthcare provider about your personal A1C goal. Then you can work with your healthcare provider to find ways of meeting this goal. By lowering you A1C even 1 percentage point, you can reduce the risk for eye, kidney, nerve and heart problems. Less than 7% - your diabetes treatment plan is currently working. Good job! Your blood glucose is fairly well controlled. This helps cut down the risk of health problems because of your diabetes. Over time, changes in your treatment plan may be needed. Greater than 7% - your levels should be a priority. Work with your diabetes healthcare provider to reduce your level. Each percentage point over 7 greatly increases your risk by developing diabetes related complications, such as eye, kidney, nerve and heart problems. In future articles we will discuss the importance of routine eye exams, nephropathy care, and maintaining a healthy blood pressure.
