I am sorry to listen to your concerns, but it is good that you are taking measures and looking for answers.
First, it is important to remember that only a doctor can diagnose with diabetes.While the values you mention are in the range of prediabetes or diabetes type 2, it is essential that you talk to your endocrinologist to obtain a clear diagnosis and better understand your situation.
Some points to consider:
Changes in lifestyle: You have done an impressive job in terms of weight loss and adoption of a healthy lifestyle.Continuing with a balanced diet and maintaining a regular exercise routine can help control your blood sugar levels.
Regular monitoring: It is crucial that you continue to monitor your glucose levels regularly, especially if you are in the range of prediabetes or diabetes.
Medication: Depending on your diagnosis, the doctor could prescribe medications to help control your blood sugar levels.
Education: It is essential to educate you about diabetes and how your body affects.This will help you make informed decisions about your health.
Support: consider joining a support group or talking to other people who have diabetes.It may be useful to share your experiences and learn from others.
As for your questions:
Are my numbers very bad?
Glycosylated hemoglobin (HBA1C) of 6.5% is considered in the diabetes range.However, it is important to discuss these results with your endocrinologist to obtain precise interpretation.
Can you reverse?
Type 2 diabetes can be manageable and, in some cases (it is not very common), people can reverse their blood sugar levels to normal levels with significant changes in lifestyle and/or medication.However, it is essential to continue monitoring and treating the condition.
Finally, it is important to remember that each person is unique, and what works for one may not work for another.Work in close collaboration with your doctor and other health professionals to find the best treatment plan for you.
Much encouragement and strength in this process!
