[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 938272, member: 88961"] What do you feel was wrong with your HbA1c score? Personally, my HbA1c and my finger prick meter tests aren't very close (HbA1c is an average of 0.7% higher than my finger prick tests would predict). I am assuming you understand that your HbA1c and finger prick tests use a different measuring scale? I have tried to research why this might happen, and I do know of one other person, similarly affected by "adrift" HbA1cs, and the only commonality we can see, differentiating us from most others is our mean cell haemoglobin levels are marginally greater than the reported "normal" range. As an example, my last was 33.9 against a reporting normal of 27-32, so not massively outside of range. From the results I have available, I have never returned a score within range, and all are very similar, so that seems to be "just how I am". My GP is supremely unconcerned, and I'm not going to be losing any sleep for the time being. [/QUOTE]
