Hello all. It's me of the 49 FG fame. I still think that HAD to be a lab error as my home tests are 75-85 in the mornings and I did not feel hypoglycemic when my blood was taken. I used to experience hypos on low carb, so I know how lovely they feel and I didn't feel like that.

No hypos, hey? But she said:

Not quite sure why my HBA1C isn’t in the optimal <5.4 range if glucose and insulin are so excellent. HBA1C is an average of blood sugars over a three month period though, so the HBA1C may be lagging behind in terms of including blood sugars from the first few months of RRARF when my blood sugars were a lot higher than they are now.

How can she experience hypos with high FBG?!? She measured her FBG, the hypos she's talking about is not her lab measures. It must be the lethargy and light-headedness and stuff like that. The problem is, those can be caused by other stuff. I'm betting she didn't eat enough fat. So she did not in fact experience "hypos".
