[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1350429, member: 32394"] [USER=270860]@david.ed.bullock[/USER] [USER=71170]@Soplewis12[/USER] a hba1c of 5.3 translates to average blood sugar levels of 5.9, so quite safely away from hypos really. The target for type 1 is a hba1c of 6.5, individual targets are adjusted if there is some concern over hypo awareness etc. The key building block of diabetic management would be checking your basal dosage works for you and keeps you flat when not eating or bolusing (checking your not going high overnight) and then you can get your insulin:carb ratio correct for you and considering pre bolusing to help with cutting out post prandial spikes, all involves lots of testing.
