[QUOTE="gbtyke, post: 94389, member: 14797"] Just got back from doc's. Asked me how long I intended to continue testing so much? (From 2 to 6 times per day - usually 4). Refused to change my insulin as my HbA1c was too low at 5.1 - NHS target apparently 6.5. (I asked why I shouldn't have a non diabetic reading target - only reply was that hypo's are more problems than high readings - I pointed out that I have only ever had 2 readings under 4 and both those during exercise). I pointed out it was my understanding and use of insulin and diet that have brought about low HbA1c but said he could only refer me to diabetic specialist nurse re insulin so will write next week. They seem far more interested in people who don't give a ****. Cholesterol still a problem @ 5.2 HDL 1.5 LDL 2.3 TRIGS 2.98. [/QUOTE]
