Hey, @Irish –

I’m sorry that I’m a bit late to the game here. TBH, I’ve been mulling over whether or not I should share my thoughts or not. I realize that you may not be entirely happy with my opinion. But, I’m sharing it because I want the very best for you and your family.

- First, I will risk being the lone dissenter. Correct me if I am wrong, but I see 5 hypos of \<55 in two weeks. If so, you’re having too many moderate lows. (Perhaps I should duck now?)

- Metformin should allow you to use less insulin – which should translate to a lessened hypo risk from stacking. Thus, I’d press for it.

- I would consider running a _tad_ higher – reducing your hypos and variability.

- I’d also consider gathering your thoughts and emailing them to your D team. Ask that it be part of your record…

- If you’d like to explore the possibility of a glycation gap, you might request a fructosamine test alongside your next A1C.
