[QUOTE="KK123, post: 1755327, member: 451727"] I wonder if she was thinking how well your husband is doing so was saying anything between 6.5 and 7.5 was good going and didn't want him thinking he hadn't been doing a good job given that he had said he was trying to get it lower still?. I know that everybody on this forum wants the lowest numbers possible but I'll bet she sees hundreds of people with diabetes who are a darn sight more than 7.5. I think most people on this forum are by nature extremely strict about it all if not fanatical, me included, so are always striving for lower numbers. Maybe we sometimes forget that whilst we are one person seeing our Doctors & Nurses, they are seeing loads of people at the clinics, people who probably know little or are not that bothered about getting down to 4 etc. It's not surprising that if they see your hubbie trying to get down to 6.5 they instinctively compare him with someone sitting at around 9 and therefore think 7.5 is brilliant in comparison.
