Hi, diagnosed in may with type 1 going for my first hba1c test tomorrow, do you fast prior to this? I forgot to ask .

Hi. These days HBA1C tests are non-fasting to avoid overloading the clinic for those who do need it. It you want the best Lipids results then I would fast anyway.

No need to fast for a HBA1C.
