[QUOTE="NoKindOfSusie, post: 1728835, member: 441787"] I wouldn't have a go at you but I think your consultant may be a bit mad. I guess it depends on how old you are now and how long you expect to live (sorry but it's true) versus how long it will be before problems start. And how you feel about risk. How does the consultant know that you won't get problems? Basically nobody knows that, we've all been told it's random after a certain point, some people have an hba1c in the low 40s and get problems so how can anyone say that. I'm sure she was happy for you to be high a lot, it's not her health that will suffer! [/QUOTE]
