[QUOTE="Sunflower777, post: 2732066, member: 593304"] Hi there. I wonder if anyone can help with my query. I've been checking my blood sugar via finger prick for 2 months after several months of feeling general weary, tingling in calves & feet and feeling exhausted after eating carbs and some blurred distance vision. My morning fasting numbers are never under 6.8 and often around 7.5. 2 hours after eating I'm often over 10 and been 13.5 on a few occasions. Before bedtime is around 8. I've just had an Hba1c done with result of 37. I know this is a good number. However I can't understand how this is can be correct with my average finger prick tests being high. Would a cgm be a good idea? Many thanks. [/QUOTE]
