Hi Indian1990 ,

Did your doctor's office run the A1c for today? What did they suggest?

Due to change of season???

Hba1c tends to get affected by change of season...

ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

Hemoglobin A1c is higher in cooler months and lower in the warmer months in both hemispheres. In a country with minimal monthly temperature variation, there is only minimal variation in HbA1c values through the year. In all locations, the mean and median HbA1c declined over the study period, possibly due to better glycemic control of patients with diabetes or an increase in use of HbA1c as a screening test for diabetes or a combination of both.

I knew that a1c increases in winter but my most of the time is spent in Office and home where air conditioning is installed. I will test in the month of April again. Will post the results then.
