Fructosamine results

Messages

I’ve been having symptoms of diabetes for about a year my hba1c tests have all come back normal. I’ve seen that some people use fructosamine test for diagnosis. My fructosamine results are 258 umol/l. I’m not sure what this means can anyone help me understand this. thanks
 

Thanks for the tag, but I have no experience of the Fructosamine test other than when my higher than expected HbA1c results showed I probably have long lived haemoglobin I asked for the Fructosamine test but was refused. I was told very, very few labs in the UK analyse these tests making them expensive and the logistics difficult. Instead, I was given 2 simultaneous HbA1c tests, each analysed on different types of machine.
 

Ah thanks for responding, I thought you’d had a fructosamine test. My error.
