[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 2076652, member: 219467"] They probably want to repeat the HbA1c test to make sure that the result of the first is replicated by the second before making a diagnosis. That's the usual way it's done in England anyway. 2 HbA1c tests in 2 weeks and if both are over the threshold for diabetes they will diagnose from those. I presume when you say it was a routine blood test they took blood from your arm and filled a tube rather than just pricked your finger? [/QUOTE]
