[QUOTE="phdiabetic, post: 1589926, member: 317494"] I would tend to put this down to libre/meter inaccuracy, but it's also very suspicious! It's especially weird that the two of us seem to have the opposite problem haha, I would at least expect this sort of thing to be consistent. I wonder about this sort of thing because my last HbA1c was the lowest my doctor's ever seen, including non-diabetic people, and my current number is still lower than pretty much all the non-diabetics she's seen. Recently I struggled with getting my basal right, as well as stress, and spent quite a bit of time in the 10's-13's. I also didn't have any hypos. So if normal people also don't have hypos, and they don't go as high as I did, how is it possible that my HbA1c is better than theirs?? [/QUOTE]
