[QUOTE="Indy51, post: 547634, member: 48386"] If your level is 5.1%, I think you must have a pretty strange diabetes team. I have an HBA1c level similar to yours on no medication and my doctor considers me to be a star patient. Normal A1c is anything below 6.0%. Are you using a BG meter? What results are you getting with that? This sounds pretty odd to me, unless I'm getting confused about the A1c level (I do find the 3 different ways of reporting it very strange, I admit). Unless you're doing extreme exercise, 150g of carbs per day should be more than adequate. You could probably come down even more if your postprandial BG levels are still high. [/QUOTE]
