I've just checked my meter and my 7, 14 and 30 day averages are all 6.2! 🙂
 
Jealousy sets in......................:(

How...................?
 
Steady Eddie - well done!🙂
 
I'm jealous as well even with the CGM I could never dream of having averages that low. I'm really pleased for you:D
 
Wow! That's running pretty tight there Alan. What's the hypo count over the same period?
 
Alan im not your fwend( walks away pet lip looming)
 
Strangely enough my 7, 14 and 30 averages are all 5.4!

Regards Dodger
 
I've had about a dozen hypos in the past month, mostly due to gardening! 🙂

Cracking! Always tricky to Jelly Baby 'up front' for gardening since you're never very sure how much effort might be involved 🙂
 
Well done Alan :D , looks like im catching you up tho 😉 im having same trouble with hypos i think mine is a lot to do with extra walking .
 
As the classy girls from the Only Way is Essex say " Well Jel!!" :D

Amazing numbers Alan, what's your secret? I could never get those numbers on a pump...let alone MDI!!

My 90 day is 7.5, 60 day 7.2, 30 day 7.3, 14 day 6.9, 7 day 7.0......not too bad.

No secret, I think I am just lucky. It has been suggested in the past that I might be producing a small amount of my own insulin which helps to smooth the numbers. This is indicated by the relatively small amount of basal insulin I need, only about 10% of my total daily dose 🙂

At 10% its a fair guess that your pancreas is still producing a fair amount of insulin.
 
ggrr! Can you give me a bit of your good luck please? I love you really Alan x Well done 🙂

What monitor are you using to get 60 and 90 day averages? I've been thinking of changing my monitor for awhile. I'm currently using the freestyle lite and it only shows me 7, 14 and 30 days.

It's an accu chek combo (came with my pump) pretty much the same as my accu chek expert. Smart pix is good too! 🙂
