[QUOTE="George775, post: 2682699, member: 585968"] I'm glad I'm not some kind of unicorn and there are others out there as confused as I am. I'm totally fine with a type 2 diagnosis but I find it strange and hate the thought of statistics alone being the determining factor. I'm still only a few weeks in using the Libre and trying to gather as much data as possible backed up by finger pricks. I'm logging everything I eat using an app, I log what I do and when on the Libre app too so I have some type of reference hopefully there'll be some type of pattern. I feel confident returning to the doctor with some solid data will help her understand better what's going on. I'm honestly half expecting a referral. I had no idea what a low was until I got the Libre. I shrugged it off as being tired from working too hard even though I didn't feel like I was working that hard. I have no idea what my c-peptide is, do either of you have a low resting heart rate. That was mentioned by a previous doctor totally unrelated to the type 2 diagnosis. They thought my resting heart rate in the high 40's or low 50's in the morning was too low. Blood pressure is normal or text book as my old doc used to say. I've checked both my smart watch and bp monitor with the doctors readings while in their office to ensure they are both reasonably accurate. [/QUOTE]
