[QUOTE="ert, post: 2073197, member: 504712"] Welcome again. 5.4 % or 35 mmol/mol or (averaging 6.0 mmol/l). So your GP's are following the guidelines below: you don't have diabetes as you HbA1c is below 6.0%. Here's a unit converter: [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/hba1c-units-converter.html[/URL] [SIZE=5][B]HbA1c in diagnosis[/B][/SIZE] HbA1c can indicate people with prediabetes or diabetes as follows: [B]HbA1c[/B] [B]mmol/mol[/B] [B]% Normal[/B] [B]Below 42 mmol/mol[/B] [B]Below 6.0% Prediabetes[/B] [B]42 to 47 mmol/mol[/B] [B]6.0% to 6.4% Diabetes[/B] [B]48 mmol/mol or over[/B] [B]6.5% or over [/B] Just a suggestion, when you next visit to your GP, you may just list out the individual symptoms you are experiencing, rather than label it as a hypo as it may be some other health problem. Or if you remain convinced it is a hypo, read up on non-diabetic hypos: [URL]https://www.healthline.com/health/hypoglycemia-without-diabetes[/URL] At the end of the day, you still need to seek your GP's advice.
