[QUOTE="Wilko 2, post: 2285789, member: 469478"] My health authority has changed the providers, so the really supportive consultant I had, has been replaced by a new team. A virtual meeting with the new nurse has left be bewildered and frustrated. Ive been diagnosed LADA for 3 years now, and manage my blood sugar with a mixture of low carb, exercise and metformin on a daily basis. I went from a Hb1ac of 106 to 42 in 3 months, and it has kept stable at that rate ever since. The new nurse on seeing my Libreview stats of a daily average of 5.9 mol/l over 90 days - Time in target range (4-7) 91% over 90 days. and 1% < 3.9 told me to increase my Hb1ac to 48. On questioning, she said this would prevent hypos. I explained my last consultant said he was happy that I can go as low as 3.5 before meals quite safely and was happy with these figures. Ive now been referred to see a new consultant. Advice please? [/QUOTE]
