Yep, not seen much of it tho these programs fascinate me
Yep, not seen much of it tho these programs fascinate meDo you have an American TV series called Bones in the UK?
Well I must say my codefree meter seems to be giving me some very odd results. Certainly higher than my accucheck aviva was giving me. Seems to be more volatility too. Apart from last night my food has been pretty much the same. So the juries out for me guys on the Codefree for now.It's the same batch, and part way through a tub. It was the previous tub I didn't like. This one started OK then deterioratedit clearly isn't the strips in this tub because bedtime last night, fasting today, and post breakfast levels I have double checked against my Accu Chek. There are no significant differences. So obviously, it is me! Must try harder.

Not head of it yet. But I think we do. Why?Do you have an American TV series called Bones in the UK?
It's about this lady forensic anthropologist/medical examiner.Not head of it yet. But I think we do. Why?
VERY HELPFUL> I must admit I feel most comfortable at a sort pf 6 to 7 range. I just feel different and at ease with myself. I also think that if I get down to below 5's the system then thinks there is a problem and my BS levels then shoot up massively say above 8's, maybe a liver dump thinks the body needs a top up. I don't feel great then either. My ideal would be 6 to 7.5 that's it.We all have odd moments of weakness..mine last night was some Tiramisu. My all time fave...had a low carb meal but suddenly got my Christmas head on....now I'm at target weight I tolerate carbs better than before...but there is a price to.pay...once I give in a bit and have carbs. Although tiramisu not awful as its marscapone and I had mine with cream...didn't dare test. My fasting was a bit higher this morning...
My gp is a type 2. And he follows a lchf diet ( I'm so lucky ) has warned me this week that my recent low readings in the day. Average 5.1 are too low...he has researched in depth and apparently readings below normal can be as harmful as high readings..I checked this with my Endo dr friend and he wholeheartedly agrees so I must find a balance once again with carbs..not losing anymore weight but not wanting carb cravings to re surface....
That's me. Lol. I've attended 5 autopsies this month alone...its not a conversation opener I promiseIt's about this lady forensic anthropologist/medical examiner.
You will note that most non diabetics are in the 5-5,4% range.
In fact only 23% of non diabetics have hbA1c of less than 5%
The corresponding percentage for the 5-5,9 range is 69%
While for the prediabetic range 6-6,4% is 8%
No can of worms but a really interesting topic that I have been thinking about for ages.. Hence my waffly posts about wondering what levels a non diabetic might reach.
I don't think we can tell anyone what is best for them, but I am coming round to idea that I maybe don't need to run myself at such low levels all the time.. Keep posting stuff you two as I'm finding it all fascinating and food for thought.
Would be with meThat's me. Lol. I've attended 5 autopsies this month alone...its not a conversation opener I promise
A very interesting can of worms though. ....My partner paid privately for an HBa1c. And it came back 5.6%.. he is fit. Normal weight and bmi. I've tested him before and after and high carb meals and he has hit 9.3 after a meal. Back to 5.8 or 6 after 2 hours
I think I have indeed opened a can of worms
An enquiring mind is an interesting mind. There is a proper saying abt an enquiring mind - can anyone recall what it is?My mind has always been full of worms. I've always been too clever for my own good, always questioning and always finding holes in other people's logic, or worse my own
It does not always make me very popular. :-(
Very Healthy philosophy excuse the pun.My mind has always been full of worms. I've always been too clever for my own good, always questioning and always finding holes in other people's logic, or worse my own

Yup, good isn't itSo now we have 'autopsies' and 'can of worms' in the same thread
YES I am comforted too that's REALThanks for the graph @pavlosn
So quite a large number in the 5.5 to 5.9 range. That puts those people in the range of 6.2 to 6.8mmol/l on average, so assuming they have normal fasting levels (and overnight) and pre-meals in the 4's or low 5's, they must spend a lot of time up in the 8's. That is comforting!
