[QUOTE="MeiChanski, post: 2218846, member: 503481"] Thank you for everyone’s response. I saw the GP nurse today and my bloods were taken two weeks ago. I had Dexcom (TIR was around 70%) for a month and my pump for around a month (rocky start and quite high at the start). I was 6.0% because of hypos and now my hba1c is 7.2% but my TIR is very good. It’ll be interesting to see my team again in March and my consultant in July to discuss TIR rather than focusing on hba1c. I’m hopeful my hba1c will come down with stable BGs and less hypos. I feel hba1c doesn’t capture your management very well and TIR is much better in telling your management. As we know hypos and highs can drag down or increase your hba1c and it doesn’t show your time spent being in range. [/QUOTE]
