so i had my hba1c today which came back as 4.9% i know this is pretty low but i'm still getting use to insulin adjustments per meal and i tend to overestimate if i'm unsure. 4.9's gotta be better than 7 or 8 though right? but my consultant said there' no evidence that an hba1c of anything below 6.6% will reduce the risk of comps. i do often go 'low' and i admit they're a bit too frequent but it seems it's either that or risk spiking.
also due to reducing my carb intake and increasing my exercise, i have lost 7lbs since seeing him last (which i didn't want). my bmi was perfect but i'd really like to be on the heavier side (muscle obviously lol).
thing is i don't think it's all my vigilant/inexperienced fault on the low a1c as a breakfast i was using 12 units for a coupla months ago is now still sending me low at 9 units. so i dunno if this is a bit of honeymooning? is there anyway of knowing? + the same thing just happened with my dinner.
howie
