In October last year I was diagnosed as having prediabetes with a HbA1c test result of 42. By changes to my diet I managed to get this down to a normal 38 by the time I was retested this year in January, obviously I was very relieved and pleased.
Unfortunately due to various things going on in my life I have been suffering from a lot of stress and anxiety for the last few months, this has been compounded by the current Covid 19 situation also. A week ago I was due for another HbA1c test as a check-up, much to my dismay this came back with a result of 44. My question is; is it possible that stress and anxiety is having an effect on the HbA1c test results?, has anybody else had this experience?
