It has been over a year since my last diabetes review. Surgery overwhelmed and not offering blood tests unless emergency. Although I am using a meter regularly, with average readings over last 3 months of 5.6, I am interested to know HbA1c.
Anyone used home HbA1c tests? Worth the effort, and expense? Any experiences good or bad to help me make up mind whether or not to order some. Or do I just wait until surgery can accommodate the need, as there are the other general blood tests outstanding too?
