[QUOTE="lilibet, post: 30191, member: 11459"] Hi all Diagnosed 12th September (feels like a loooooooooong time ago). Not sure if hba1c was taken on day of diagnosis - Friday night in A and E in busy hospital. Know blood was taken to check for DKA/keytones but not sure if hba1c was taken. Have been mainly seeing DSN but due to have 'new patient' appt next week with Consultant/eye test etc and apparently Hba1c to be taken. My understanding is that this tends to be 3 months/90 days and Im unsure why they are taking it in less time. Can only think that a) this is the first (in which case likely to be skewed as bs 27 on dx) b) their continual comments re my control being too tight has motivated them to do it early (dont know if they think im lying about lack of hypos. Certainly felt hypo but only 'medically' hypo 1x) Or of course they may just bed doing it cause I am there LOL Any thoughts? L [/QUOTE]
