[QUOTE="Bluetit1802, post: 621209, member: 94045"] She is possibly giving these high levels so as not to demoralise those still struggling for control?? I know it is a fairly general occurrence for HCP's to set a target for an HbA1c of 53, which equates to 8.6mmol/l - and that is a 3 month average. Quite ridiculous, but there again an attainable level. I suppose there is no point setting targets that demoralise folk and make them give up. However, I do think they should point out that this is a generous target and once met should be lowered. [/QUOTE]
