[QUOTE="Mbaker, post: 2061041, member: 256617"] This is absolutely right. If a "normal" HbA1c is obtained it could be like a 500 cc car doing 70 mph as a maximum and redlining, compared to a 1.5 litre cruising at 70. HbA1c is a good marker, but ideally you would want this achieved with the least amount of insulin being secreted, glucose spikes below 7.8, short period spikes and the lowest amount of background (basal) circulating insulin.
