unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about hypoglycaemia is guesswork

Question Receipts ×2

unpopular opinion: most of what gets said here about hypoglycaemia is guesswork. Not a hot take, just something I have not seen said plainly here.

Postprandial excursions flattened out first and the fasting number took months to follow. Nobody had told me to expect that order.

Sensor accuracy varies across wear, and readings on the first day are the least reliable. Calibration practice and compression artefacts explain many alarming single values.

The diabetes and obesity programmes are separate, with different populations and different primary endpoints. Reading a result across from one to the other is not a comparison.

Please do not ask me what dose you should be on. I genuinely do not know and neither does anyone else here.

Fasting or postprandial?

Certain conditions affect A1c independently of glycaemia. If a result looks inconsistent with the sensor data, that is a question for whoever manages your care rather than for this board.

postprandial excursions are where most of the improvement shows up first

About c/t2dglp1

Type 2 diabetes as the original indication: A1c trajectories, CGM traces, hypoglycaemia risk when stacked with sulfonylureas or insulin, metformin combinations, and why the weight-loss conversation sometimes drowns out the glycaemic one.
