A member asked:
I have a hemocue meter for testing my hemoglobin. it seems to be quite accurate, have you heard of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hemocue: Very accurate for measuring hemoglobin A1C in diabetes. Bear in mind that Hemoglobin A1C measures glucose control over the past 90 days, not today. It isn't useful to test A1C much more often than every 90 days because it doesn't change very rapidly. Glucose meter is more accurate. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
