A member asked:
I have been trying to reverse my type 2 diabetes for the last couple of months with diet and exercise. my a1c just came back at 5.7 .if it comes back lower than 5.7 in the next check up, does that mean i reversed the diabetes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I would always consider myself a Type 2 in that situation, only in the best control I could achieve. The side effects/complications of T2 are reduced to a point that approaches the general population. However, with a prior demonstration that my body acted this way when my diet or weight was not controlled, it can easily return.
