Congrats on the A1C! That's excellent and not always easy to achieve.
Simply put, when your blood glucose is very high, it means the sugar is in your blood rather than in your cells. Insulin helps your cells use glucose. So if it is in the blood rather than the cells, the cells have no energy to run on and you feel tired. We have a section on type 2 diabetes that may help you: https://www.empowher.com/media/reference/type-2-diabetes.
I also suggest the American Diabetes Association website for factual information and support: http://www.diabetes.org/.
Thank you for writing. If we can be of further assistance please don't hesitate to let us know.
