Good luck with that. I sympathise with your predicament as I am in a similar situation but based on UK recommendations which from what you posted are quite different. Where is the third way when you need it? The real kicker is that fretting about it will likely make the situation worse. In my case I will settle for the good bit (lipids) holding steady and aim to tweak the less good bit (A1c of 38) in a manner unlikely to damage the lipids. Let us know how you play this as I am interested. Best of luck.

Before yesterday I was so proud of myself when I hit the 5s, but now - deflated! I’ve decided to carry on as before since I felt ‘good’ and never had any problems (apart from this damned illness). My eyesight had improved (even needed to get new, weaker prescription glasses last week), I’d lost some weight and I personally thought I’d made progress since being diagnosed last November. Thanks for your supportive comments - greatly appreciated. Awrabest to you too.

6.1 at ridiculous o’clock. It’s Schulsylvester (last day of school) and tradition is that kids are up early, wandering about with whistles, cowbells, pot lids, drums - anything that makes a noise. Ringing doorbells and running away is another favourite. Siesta on cards for me this afternoon!
