A member asked:

What does it mean when your ac1 is a 6.3 my fasting blood sugar was a 155?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Borderline A1C: A1c is a rough estimate of your last 2-3 months of blood sugars. Your level roughly correlates to an average sugar of 140. Based on this level you are not quite a "diabetic". However, your fasting number qualifies you. It should be repeated but you should begin making lifestyle changes regardless.
