Your 6.2 is awesome as long as you're not experiencing frequent hypos - more than once or twice a week. I've had problems with severe hypoglycemic events ever since I was diagnosed 40 years ago. And my biggest problem with control now is severe hypo unawareness. My endo says that a hypo event will kill me much faster than any complications from a 7.0A1c. That statement caused me to be a bit less obsessive about a lower number.
