Re: [IP] Too good hbA1C?
Possibly you're going way too high and then too low with MDI, which
results in
an A1C that only LOOKS good. :) You could try that one....
I just upgraded to the Animas 1250 so it can do the math when I'm way
too high
due to allergic reactions. I had to have an A1C for this and even
though I was presently
out of control for over 2 weeks it was not reflected in the A1C
much....I got a 7.2,
which surprised me as I was hitting 350+ due to allergic reactions from
foods.
