[QUOTE="nutribolt, post: 2425524, member: 533316"] 4.3 at 6AM and 4.4 just now. Flatline graph averaging at 4 If your HbA1c is coming in good range I don't think it should be that worrying. With exception to dawn phenomena the flatline graph is more conducive to long term good health than frequent fluctuation between high and low numbers. A person having a flatline at 7 most of the time may have better long term health than someone whose average is say 5.5 but variance goes between 3.4 and 9.0. That is infact one reason why libre trend is a better measure than HbA1c as latter can put false relief in ones mind. Having said all that I must add this is purely my interpretation of what I have gathered from all the reading I have done from various sources but am not an expert on medical science and if you are worried talking to a doctor should help you device a new strategy. Have a great day everyone. :) [/QUOTE]
