[QUOTE="andcol, post: 1509633, member: 96315"] None of this talk about the meters against lab test really answers the OPs question! My take on it is that you have many times where you are running fairly low (possibly 4s). This compensates for the times when you are high so you get a reasonable average (HbA1c). Of course going to 11 from 4 isnt good (you can feel it) and the fact you do not go over it proves your body still has enough control but not much capacity to push it further. My suggestion is to squash those peaks into the 8s by reducing your carb intake a little - especiall starchy carbs and sugar. [/QUOTE]
