I'd say the 115 is good but the 6.1 is high. You are having high blood glycogen swings in there somewhere.

----------------------
lab tests come back quickly
AIC crept up to 6.1 from 6.0
sugar was 115
both too high

High, try 9.4.
6.1 is somewhat normal range. Always like for it to be lower though. 115 is a tolerable number when I had been running 180’s-190. Best to be lower on all accounts, how we get there? Whatever works.

But how low can you go?
I've had problems when it dips below 80 and I think the lowest I've seen on my cheap One-Touch meter is 57.
But I usually can feel it going low and get some sugar in me, so by the time the time I test it's gone up some.

I’ve only been dealing with this for 6-7 years, but when I go below 90 I know it. If you research online, I believe below 70 is getting too low.
