[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2598130, member: 480869"] I know low hba1c has the concern it’s achieved by means of hypos, particularly in the more mature patients. However it’s an assumption on his part and surely there’d be some signs of hypos in the day if that was likely. And his suspicions or fears are not the same as knowing that’s what’s happening. Nor do they justify forcing you onto an unwanted medication or removing the one you are content with if you don’t do his bidding. That would leave you without medical assistance reducing levels entirely so whilst you wouldn’t be getting hypos you would be getting much higher hba1c and getting sicker. Have you ever used the libre to establish if hypos are happening and to reassure him? It sounds like he is refusing to accept you are diet assisted (I’m not sure you can claim diet controlled when also taking gliclizide and dapagliflozon. [/QUOTE]
