Bluesinger, I am right behind you, 72 coming up in January. I have the achy hands right now, but it goes away occasionally and I don't know what is making the difference. I don't take anything for it, but I do rub some Aspercreme on my fingers when it's really bad.

I am full blown type 2 and my A1c is much higher than yours. I'm working on it, but I'm not as diligent as I know I should be.
