[QUOTE="briped, post: 1783557, member: 472718"] In late March my HbA1c was 13.4 mmol/L arrow up (242 mg/dl) and my endo was keen on getting me on insulin :***: I knew it would be bad, so I wasn't surprised, but I wasn't going to go on insulin. I panicked, and soon my estimated A1C had come down to 5.7% in the two weeks from April 3rd to April 16th. Since April 17th my estimated A1C has been 5.3%, so I'm not happy that the numbers have been in the 6s yesterday and today. I do believe that my low quality of sleep could well be the explanation, so I better just stop worrying. Your stress at work, even if it was only the one day, could have an effect on your BG, I'm sure. But yes, puzzling and just when you think you've got your system sussed out, there you are, another surprise for you :) [/QUOTE]
