[QUOTE="ajbod, post: 2595947, member: 544995"] Theoretically if you had been on any medication which could raise your levels, or carrying an infection for a large part of the 3 months previous to your Hba1c, then it could be possible that the results are skewed slightly. However even if this had by some very slim chance have happened, then the real figure would still have been pre diabetic, as they couldn't have that big an impact. The DN might want you to take Metformin, but at the end of the day she cannot make you take them if you don't want to. You'll probably have Statins pushed at you as well, a good earner for the practice. [/QUOTE]
