I lost several years of blogging once and it was super disappointing. <br /><br />I wonder if the NPH A1C benefit has to do with some of the potential for lows. When I was on NPH or 70/30 my blood sugar would drop around lunch time pretty fast and I had to eat on schedule or I'd have lows. It seems like that might show up in A1Cs (looking good), but in reality it's not so great. <br /><br />Yeah, you are right, the standard results aren't that impressive. When I see stats saying that tight regimens are less beneficial at preventing complications, I have to take it with a grain of salt, because most people in the studies are getting higher a1cs than intensive patients are getting these days. I wonder if they even have studies to show the impact of A1Cs in the 5-6 range for T1D people. <br /><br />I think we are going to see a trend of diabetics living longer and better as more time passes.
