I am John. Type 2 (my GP and I believe). Usual HbA1c coming down to 36. Last result, results last week, 25!
I don't believe it either 🙂 My meter and my calcs agree at about 39.

Hi John, welcome to the forum 🙂 How long have you been diagnosed? 25 is indeed very low, although I have seen similar results on occasion here. Is there any possibility you might be anaemic? I think results can be skewed a bit if so. If not, then a remarkable result! 🙂
 
Hi Northerner (from a Midlander). Thanks grovesy..
Course of cancer treatment (chemo and radio therapy) this year after a scare. We (my diabetes nurse and I) know my platelets and white cell count are both down. We put it down to an imbalance in my bloods. My meter gave a 90 day reading which equated to 38 and my calcs from the same data gave me 39. She did take the opportunity of reducing my Glicacide by half though!
Diagnosed autumn 2012.
