A member asked:

I have high blood sugar found on bloodwork but not diabetic. a1c is 5.5. is there medication i can take to keep blood sugar steady for non diabeties?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A1c 5.5: Hard to understand why blood sugar is high and A1c is normal. Please have your doctor repeat both A1c and blood sugar level. Please let me know what develops.
