Well, I called up for my latest HbA1c results and I'm satisfied. 5.8
It's been 5.8 for the past 3 tests so I suppose that's a good thing. I'm still seeing the odd higher number 2 hours after dinner, that I don't like. 11's etc - and for no consistent reason that I can figure out (I do have to be strict with my carb levels at night). Not to mention higher fasting numbers - average is around 6.5 but has been up to 7.8. I've read online that a snack before bedtime helps, but for me it doesn't seem to make much of a difference. Perhaps I haven't found the right type of snack??
My after breakfast numbers are fine though. Usually between 5-6.5 2 hours later, and that's after cereal. I hear a lot of type 2 diabetics are able to tolerate carbs better at night than in the mornings but it seems to be the opposite for me. Not exactly convenient for me when I start work at 6.30am and am barely awake enough to even notice what I'm eating!
