Hi Guys
Do you are different ratio analysis between laboratory
Because I belive difference at the measures of my laboratory
The following. %
Last HbA1c was 7.4 that mean it's median ?

4 to 6 it's normal
6 to7 it's excellent
7.5 to 9 it's median
9 > it's higher

This is what the website says about HbA1c levels which are the accepted levels in the U.K.:

I do not know if it is in line with Morocco's standards
Because there is a difference here between laboratories there is no certified value
In fact I no longer know if I was on the correct number
Taking into consideration these recommendations <7.5 % it's median
 
The HbA1c standards are fairly universal and suggested by the World Health Organisation

In the UK these are the HbA1c levels for diagnosing diabetes are:

Below 6% (42) is normal
6% to 6.4% (42 to 47) is pre-diabetic
6.5% (48) or over is diabetic.

However, this is only for diagnosis. Once a person has been diagnosed there are different acceptable targets, which is why you may be seeing different numbers. These targets are higher than the ones used for diagnosis, and also vary according to whether you are on insulin or not. Insulin users have higher targets, as do older people. They are not set by the lab. They are agreed between the doctor and the patient.
 
In any case they recommend less than 6% (42)
For a normal ratio
