Lightbulb another article:

Quote:
The Association's treatment guidelines also state that treatment should
be tailored to the individual patient and that for some people with
diabetes, intensive glucose control may not be warranted. Of note, the
American Diabetes Association (in its Standards of Medical Care) states:
"Less stringent A1C goals may be appropriate for patients with a history of
severe hypoglycemia, patients with limited life expectancies, children,
individuals with comorbid conditions, and those with longstanding diabetes
and minimal or stable microvascular complications."
from http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/st...4750723&EDATE=

It is a complex issue. The answer will take alot of time to be forthcoming, I predict.
