Guest guest Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 My highest A1C has been 8.6 and my lowest has been 5.9. My highest BG has been 340 and my lowest has been 69. I use to consistently run high and not able to get it down as I should. Vivian and Barbee (That's Barbee with 2 E's.) blazie.girl@...

Guest guest Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Good going Viv It seems like you are getting closer to the ideal limits for yourself. I know it is a struggle, but learning seems to be more than a one shot experience for most of us. It takes real study and application time after time to replicate the ideal experiences, which seems to change according to circumstances. One of my favorite characters in the book The Fountain Head Elsworth Toohey said If you of all people, turned out to be the one to turn the trick. " " About the way I look, Ellsworth, " he said suddenly, " about the way I look ... it's not because I mind so much that I'm a failure ... it's because I can't understand why I slipped like that ... from the top ... without any reason at all... " " Well, , that could be terrifying to contemplate. The inexplicable is always terrifying. But it wouldn't be so frightening if you stopped to ask yourself whether there's ever been any reason why you should have been at the top. Oh come, , smile, I'm only kidding. One loses everything when one loses one's sense of humor. " I think he has a point, Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 10, 2012 Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 Yes he does seem to have a point. Diabetes is that battle that you win sometimes and you don't do so well other times. One just can do one's best. Vivian and Barbee (That's Barbee with 2 E's.) blazie.girl@...
