[QUOTE="callieuk, post: 1861446, member: 472047"] I cannot do decent fasting numbers at all - my morning monitored BG figure has never been below 7.8 but is more often than not between 8.5 and 9.2, and my A1c last month was 41. The OGTT are always done fasting overnight and so the evidence points to early morning spikes for me but the nurse wasn't interested and I haven't spoken to a doc at all. At one point a few years back I had 3 OGTT in the space of 6 months and 2 A1cs! My BGs are always better afternoon/evening. I have read that that early morning spike can often be the last thing that gets sorted, if at all! I guess it depends when you are fasting? If you are doing a dietary fast then my morning spikes likely aren't an indicator of use. Cal [/QUOTE]
