[QUOTE="Amanda 4 willow, post: 143108, member: 27728"] I'd had the fortunate, or unfortuate situation of moving location 4 times since my son was diagnosed and I can easily say, every place has a different method of doing the HbA1c. Currently, they do my sons there at the clinic on an pretty much instant machine, which is great, but one clinic actually sent you home with capillary tubes after each clinic and you had to fill and send in the capillary tube 2 week before your next appointment to allow them to have an up to date result when you attended. Perhaps you could suggest this to your clinic because it means they dont' have to change their machines, to the new faster (and no doubt expensive ones) but it means you get to know what your HbA1c is when you need to know it and when you can discuss it with the doctor.
