I had an A1C that was 36 in August, so nowhere near even prediabetic, that correlates to a CGM average of about 6.1 for me, so 6 is doing very well and perhaps better than it needs to be? I am finding that it is actually improving over time, I can eat things I couldn't a few months ago and don't need to do as much exercise. Apparently complete remission is very rare, less than 3% of T1s. But as you say the best position for now. I have tried to read every bit of research and trials about maintaining beta function and take supplements accordingly. I know it might change one day but I want to do everything I can at least.The only problem I am having is with fatigue, I have pretty much worked out this is due to glycogen depletion. I am not super low carb but usually around 50-70g per day. If you are not in ketosis, a certain minimum level of carbs to keep the body running seems necessary, for me anyway. Have you had that problem?</blockquote>
