HbA1c figure

[Bogart99]

Now this has probably been asked numerous times before. I am somewhat confused regarding this reading and how it varies.
I did try Libre 2 sensors which I found good, only tried as were free!
Now if I do a pin prick test results seem odd to me. I can have a morning figure pre yogurt breakfast of say 6.0. Watch myself all day
on intake. Minimal carbs only drinks tea coffee or water. Next morning is 6.6. Repeat day after then maybe 6.2 on following morning.
Day after up to say 6.6 again. I am very confused as to why these variations.

The readings you quote are very close together in the big scheme of things. Blood sugar levels are not a static thing by any means and can vary from one minute to the next. Levels are affected by many things, not just food. Stress, a bad night’s sleep, activity, illness and more I can’t recall right now. It’s good to keep an eye on what’s happening but try not to get hung up on these tiny variations. What’s important is to look for trends and what your HbA1c is.
