Am I alone in not worrying about it, all else being under control?
I rarely check my BG first thing in the morning, I have always taken the view that there is really very little I can do to affect it beyond my current efforts so there is not much point in checking it. This is against a backdrop of extremely consistent low-carb eating plus checking my BG response if I introduce a new foodstuff to my diet, or if I have any reason to suspect elevated glucose levels such as flare-up of conditions I associated with raised sugars.
I assume that my if my HbA1c levels are mid-30s then there is nothing much to concern me. Thoughts, anyone? I see so much anxiety on here about fasting BG and stressing over the dawn phenomenon, are we at risk of over-emphasising it’s importance?
