My last two HbA1c readings were 38 and 37 and at my recent review my DSN never mentioned the words 'cured' or 'remission' only 'well controlled' which is how I prefer to look at it. I know if I were to eat a wonderful Waitrose jam doughnut from their bakery counter then my BG reading would very quickly hit double figures and I'd be struggling to keep awake. I know this to be the case as I did this once a few months ago. I slept for nearly three hours and was still in double figures when I finally woke. And that's why I'm happy with 'well controlled' as that accurately describes where I am.
