[QUOTE="amber22, post: 1308489, member: 237923"] My HbA1c was 7.3% - 56 but I was retested two weeks later and it was 7.5% - 58. That's when I was formally diagnosed. I think it was retested in case it was a mistake. Mistakes can occur. It is after all a serious diagnosis. I was still in shock and disbelief at the time. After the first result, I woke up one morning a couple of days later and decided it had been a mistake. The blood sample did not belong to me but the man who had gone into the test room before me. It didn't last long. I'll add that I had many symptoms. [/QUOTE]
