Hi chris53,
They’re usually done less frequently than that but if you’ve been monitoring your blood sugars and seen them drop, then there should be a change in your HbA1c. Remember it’s an average measure of about 90 days of blood sugar levels, so it will include the time before you started. So if it’s not a huge decrease don’t be too disappointed. Keep up the good work though as the next one will be even better. 🙂
Hi chris53
I don’t know if 10 days will be enough time. I had tests taken 4 weeks in to the plan and they showed a definite lowering of HbA1c levels so there may just be a pointer in your results.
Thank you. Probably not the best time. To be honest l don’t know why l need to take that test so soon.
