Forget what the "specialists" say or at least take with a pinch of salt. You are much more likely to avoid all the beautiful diabetes complications with a lower A1C. An A1C of 6.2 doens't neccessarily mean you are always having lows! If your BS doens't go lower than 3.4 then I wouldn't worry about hypo unawareness. I think the reason the docs will say A1C is too low is that they are used to seeing so many patients with A1C's over 7.5 so 6.2 just "seems" low to them.
I've noticed the tendancy amongst UK doctors to overreact if you have good control or wanting to acheive the best control you can and say things like "are you obsessing about your control"!!
Wouldn't the docs and nurses rather see you with an A1C of 6.2 and living a good life (of course not always being in a hypo state) than 16.2!!?
