| 52 hypos in 70 days is no doubt too many. All of those low BG levels are reflected in your exceptionally low A1C of 5.2. Low A1Cs are great if you can manage them without frequent risk of hypos. I have a suspicion that there is a point of "diminishing returns" with the A1c. In other words there may not be a great difference between an A1c of 5.2 and 6.2, although there is likely a significant difference between an A1c of 6.2 and 7.2. It probably wouldn't hurt to elevate the average level of your blood glucose to reduce the incidences of hypos.
