And I once had three years straight of double digit A1C readings. But that was ten years ago.

I found that fasting is the best way to regulate my blood glucose level (BG). I used to fast once a week to what amounted to 42-44 hours fasting. I haven't done that for a few months now and my morning BG levels have been at 200-280 recently. Intermittent fasting also helps a lot and it is time for me to go back to that. I can get it under control. It is time again.
