Thanks for your concern. Think I have probs answered above but the next 14 days will tell. Regular 7s wont maintain my 36 A1c thats what I am afraid of.Is it only your FBG which is higher than you would like? I seem to remember that your last HbA1c was fine.
My fasting levels have always been the highest of the day, I was regularly in the 7's sometimes higher. Eventually I gave up testing them, couldn't see the value of knowing a number if I could do nothing to influence it. Since my first set of blood tests when I was diagnosed my HbA1c has never been above 38.Regular 7s wont maintain my 36 A1c thats what I am afraid of.
Wow! Now THAT’S what I call a Banker. I’ve never ever read such a clear observation of our T2s predicament. Very reassuring indeed. I’ve been consternating over this for weeks and months - now years.My fasting levels have always been the highest of the day, I was regularly in the 7's sometimes higher.

Any reason? And yes, ouch indeed.9.7 ouch !
@catinahat In my case, during this January my fasting bg has been 5 or under x 10 times and in the low 5s x 6 times (x 2 times I re-tested and got wildly different scores). But my A1c toggles always between 38 / 39. So I could say that, like yours, my fasting bg has very little impact on my A1c!Since my first set of blood tests when I was diagnosed my HbA1c has never been above 38.
So in my case it seems that being a point or 2 above what I would like for a short time in the morning has very little impact on my HbA1c
Think I can say snap to that. Ok FBGs but I know that my HbA1c won't come anywhere near the predictions. Libre suggested HbA1c would be 34, actual figure last time 40. We just keep trying. At least for now I am managing to control the D without meds.@catinahat In my case, during this January my fasting bg has been 5 or under x 10 times and in the low 5s x 6 times (x 2 times I re-tested and got wildly different scores).

Yes entirely my own fault just can't seem to get back into eating healthy and doing proper exercise.Any reason? And yes, ouch indeed.
Hugs for @PenguinMum - bg misbehaving; @DEBBIESCOTT - Larry misbehaving; @Widgets - sleep misbehaving. Yay for @karen8967 continuing to see no hypos or hypers. Gym for me yesterday - quite busy, lots of youngish petite or at least very trim looking females lifting weights in various ways. Big generational shift and good to see. Quite worrying about COVID risk but LC alone doesn't work for me and misbehaving BG doesn't equal wellbeing. Go Team D.
You make a very good point. I guess I am worried that I am usually in the 5s prior to teatime but the last few days have been 7s. My Libre this afternoon was at 3.7 for 90 mins which made me eat a biscuit just in case! Big disparency between testing strips and Libre atm. At least Libre gives me trends if not very true.My fasting levels have always been the highest of the day, I was regularly in the 7's sometimes higher.
