When I phone tomorrow for my blood test for the Hba1c what do I ask, I was told to ask what range it is ,hoping it is standerised
is that right ????
 
HbA1c is a number, so just ask what score or value your HbA1c was. If you get the number and post it we'll all give you a truthful opinion on how you are doing as like you say its a standard measure for all diabetics.
 
Celast,
ask for the actual figure( It should be in mmol/mol)
The diabetic target range is 48-59 and non diabetic range is 20-42 per my last printout.
If the receptionist says it is OK/fine etc press her for the actual figure. :twisted:
good luck!
