[QUOTE="smidge, post: 477406, member: 29301"] Yes, that was it exactly. My consultant explaind that he was on my side but...driving regulations, yada, hypos, yada, temporary overnight monitor (I sometimes wake with good fasting, sometimes low and sometimes high) so expensive when my HbA1c is so good I could just raise BG a little before bed (he means double-figures before bed to make sure it doesn't fall low overnight) - wouldn't affect HbA1c or inrease risk too much, yada, hbA1c below 6 shown to increase risk of heart disease yada, yada, yada!!! One of my more depressing hospital visits! Mind you, I got my own back when he said that his BG is sometimes 10 after a carb-heavy meal and I explained that if I wasn't diabetic and my BG went as high as that I'd be worried and go for a diabetes test. He laughed. Smidge [/QUOTE]
