4.9 baby!

Thats my new ha1c ! Maybe a bit too low, but so far I haven't had any scary lows that I have noticed. I had a c peptide drawn yesterday, but won'thave the results for a while. I still have high numbers but I don't think they stick around long enough to glycolate.

Was your MPG figured in the lab tests? (mean plasma glucose) My A1Cs are low, also, but I don't experience many low blood sugars. My MD orders an "HbA1C w/MPG" which shows a more accurate measure of your average blood sugar levels.

No, I think it was just an Ha1c.
