“104 is fine. One data point is not a trend.”
Thanks! Isn’t it odd that since Covid we have more trust in our FRiends here than we do in the healthcare industrial complex? My doctor scowled when I mentioned Ivermectin, but I chose to agree with testimonials of fellow FReepers. I’m glad I did.
A1C is the test you want if you are “concerned.”
A blood glucose test is impacted by just about everything. I test my BG about 5 times a day. If you eat a single cookie it will spike up. If you expertise it will spike up. If you eat something late the night before, it could pop up in the morning.
An A1c looks at the glucose that has attached itself to your red blood cells. A red blood cell will last about three months. So, if you have a lot of glucose in your system all the time your A1c will be high. If you spike from ice cream once a week, your A1c will be fine.
A random reading of 104 without a lot of context isn’t worthy of a comment.
