That was the same as the appointment before. I told the endo that couldn't be right that I knew it was lower than that. We had worked hard to bring it down and, like you said, his meter average gives me a pretty good idea what his A1C will be. Like at his last visit I guessed it would be 7.8 and that is exactly what it was.
