[QUOTE="sgm14, post: 2492699, member: 517358"] I never heard that. Most sources say 90 days, but some say 2-3 months. Your red blood cells normally live 120 days on average, which would make you think that the HbA1C should be an average of 120 days, but apparently it is some sort of weighted average with the newer blood cells contributing more to the value than older ones.
