HbA1c test

Just got back my results from medichecks HBAC1 test and it’s 40 mMol which is the same as my last test I did in October 2024.

Just done a HBA1C test with Medichecks and now it’s 40 mMol my last test was April this year and that was 41 mMol so it’s coming down ever so slightly I’m been walking a lot and watching what I’m eating and now down to about 78 kg weight so I guess keep plodding on

In the meantime, I have ordered an HbA1c test, as it is time for my 6-monthly thyroid and vit levels which I do privately (and there is a test that does both). I prefer to be prepared and do my research.

Hi all after having had a result of 48 on my Hba1c test I am thinking of purchasing a blood sugar level monitor to keep a check on things, anyone point me in the right direction?

I just had my appointment with the diabetic nurse, after getting the pre diabetic Hba1c blood test result. I told her about having lost 30lbs since heart attack, about my low blood pressure, my cardio protective diet, and my 45minutes of exercise each day.

for inflammation markers was raised so she prescribed me some antibiotics and sent me to have a chest xray as she said sometimes you can't always hear if their is an infection, she also prescribed me an inhaler and to top it all my HbA1c test taken Aug 29 is 48 it was 43 in May.

Only interested in my raised HBa1c test result - up from a steady 53 for the past couple of years to 57. I think the rise is due to my ending my practice of starting every week with a 48 hour fast.

My HbA1c was also stubbornly high and in the diabetic range which I couldn’t understand because I thought my diet was pretty good tbh. Well, last time I had a diabetic review in October 2024, I was told to my great delight but surprise that my HbA1c level was back to normal.

I am reluctant to up the carbs level because of rising HbA1c levels due to statins and reluctant to up protein levels due to proteinuria. Not sure what to do! Any wisdom or experience appreciated. Thanks.

My RBS was close to 300 and HbA1C was 13. At that time, I didn't even these are some serious numbers. I took diabetes very casually. I visit doc, take amaryl m1 and janumet 1000/50, and when HbA1c come to 7 or close, I stop it due to weight gain and cost of meds that I can't afford.
