Hi
@Flo-63 and welcome to the forums.
I suspect you are confused by the fact that diabetes is usually diagnosed via hba1c and there are two different measuring symptoms for hba1c. It can be measured in mmol/mol or % . It is linked to your average blood sugar over the last 3 months because it measures the sugar that has attached to your red blood cells (which live about 3 months).
Glycosylated haemoglobin & diabetes. HbA1c facts, units, diagnosis, test frequency, limitations, control, conversion. How blood glucose levels link to A1c.

So you are diabetic if you have an Hba1c greater than or equal to 6.5% or 48mmol/mol . Then if you do an ordinary blood test with a glucometer your
blood sugar is measured in mmol/L and (for a non diabetic) is normally between 4mmol/L and 8mmol/L (s0metimes a bit lower or higher).

Are you able to look at your medical records online? My
guess is that the 6.6 is 6.6% and the 59 is 59mmol/mol , but a check of the units used for the measurements would confirm that.
Here is a converter

6.6% is the same as 49mmol/mol and is equivalent to an average blood sugar of 7.9mmol/L
59mmol/mol is equivalent to 7.5% and is equivalent to an average blood sugar of 9.4mmol/L
I hope this helps, and I haven't just managed to confuse you more.
Once more, welcome.
