So i’ve recently had my HBA1C checked and my diabetic review last night. It was 88, the highest i’ve ever been. My DN was on for sending me the hospital for tests and maybe insulin.

Hi everyone just wondered what is the highest HBA1C reading that you can get? The numbers confuse me and since the pandemic i can’t seem to get mine down

As far as I know I’ve never had covid 19 but feb 2020 before all this chaos happened I was ill, then covid came about and my numbers have been high ever since. I’m convinced that when I was ill in feb that could have been covid but there was no way to test then. Ido have a meter and I do test...
