Overview
PharmEasy Labs will provide you with the test results within a couple of hours of having the test. The test results are going to appear in terms of percentages. You can see the reference ranges to interpret your test results. The reference ranges will help you understand if you are having a normal range in your HbA1c test or if you're suffering from any issues:
- Normal level:- Below 5.7%
- Prediabetes:- 5.7% - 6.4%
- Diabetes:- At or above 6.5%
However, this reference can differ from lab to lab. As you can see, the target A1c level for people with diabetes is less than 6.5%. The higher the HbA1c level, the higher will be your risk of having complications related to diabetes. If you have untreated diabetes, the level can go beyond 8% too, which is a bad sign. If you have diabetes and your level is above your target, your doctor may change your treatment plan to get your level down. The medications alone cannot be helpful in the cause. You will need a mixture of diet, exercise, and medication which can bring your levels down.
PharmEasy Labs offers a complete HbA1c test package which includes HbA1c (Glycosylated Hemoglobin) test and average blood glucose measurement.
Test Necessity
You will be recommended to have an HbA1c test if you're suffering any of the following symptoms:
- If you're above the age of 45, you should get this test done. In case your test results are normal, you should repeat the test after 3 years. If your results show you have prediabetes, you will usually need to be tested every 1 to 2 years. But in case you're found to have diabetes, you will have to get this test at least twice a year.
- In case you're under the age of 45, you might have diabetes if you suffer from symptoms like prediabetes, are overweight or obese, have high blood pressure or high cholesterol levels, and are physically active less than 3 times a week amongst many others.
Test Preparation
You don't need any special preparations for an HbA1c test. No fasting is required to conduct an accurate HbA1c test. However, your doctor can prescribe some other tests along with this one that may call for a fasting period.
During the HbA1c Test
An experienced phlebotomist will take a blood sample from a vein in your arm using a vein finder and a small needle. The blood will be kept in a collection tube for transportation and examination. The phlebotomist will take it safely to the PharmEasy labs.
