My a1c is 9 for the last 3 weeks i've been watching carbs and sugars and exercising , is it possible that i feel 100% better, not sluggish now?

Yes, if you've: Been taking better care of yourself and your diabetes, you can expect to feel abetter. Your a1c measures the prior 90 days, so there is no way it can be 9 or anything else for 3 weeks. Keep up the good work and work w/your diabetes team to improve even further.
