- No longer being prescribed metformin.
I feel my HbA1C numbers maybe flatter me a little, as when using a CGM I see that I get low values at night. I'm regularly seeing 3.5 -4 range at night for periods of under 1 hour. Does this then make daytime values look better in comparison to others than they are, or is this just my paranoia?
So I'm curious at to what other people see on CGM's as the range they get down to when asleep, especially those in remission or in good control.
Poll notes:
- As most medication save Metformin interferes with the body's natural insulin / glucose regulation and could cause false lows, I'm looking to exclude them.
- Also note range is lowest seen for 30 mins plus regularly at night; as I'm sure a lot of other people also see weird meter dips from presumably leaning on it, or random weird results from time to time.
Edit; Forgot to state the units, DOH. mmol/l.
