Read patterns, not isolated numbers
Fasting, post-meal and overnight patterns can have different causes. HbA1c, meter readings and CGM each show a different part of the picture.

HbA1c can be misleading with some anaemias, kidney disease, haemoglobin variants or recent blood loss.
Targets should balance benefit, treatment burden and hypoglycaemia risk.
