Mine is basically under control, too, but sometimes I have to get up in the night and pee or I'm really tired and realize that I didn't quite give myself enough insulin. How often do you check your blood sugars and when? Try two hours after (in addition to whatever your doctor suggests) and write it down. You may need a sliding scale (check with your doctor), if you aren't already doing it. When I check two hours after eating, if I am 150 or more, then I give myself an extra unit for every 50 over 100. Again, I would document and then check with your doc before making changes. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

I would try to keep an eye on when you get the urge to pee more frequently or when you get tired. I sometimes get tired .. excessively tired but when that happens my blood sugar is nine times out of ten high.

Just because your A1C is "normal" that doesn't mean you don't have times when your sugar is sky high after some meals or just a little higher even that could be causing the issues.

I don't so much get the frequent urination but I didn't get that before I was diagnosed either for me it is mostly getting tired that affects me.

I agree with Jeana as well as keeping a log and talking to your doctor.
