Ask your Dr: Good Morning, I would recommend calling your Dr and asking them to be sure. A1C levels are typically done every 3 months but you could delay the testing on the advice of your treating provider. For example, if your last A1C was on target and your fingersticks have been fine then delaying the test may not be an issue. Be well! Dr. Wood

Can lab be wrong sometimes? Jan.16 my A1c was 5.3 MPG 90.49. -July A1c 5.9 MPG 110.47. I had been eating a healthy diet so I wanted it rechecked. 8 days later they rechecked A1c 5.2 with MPG 87.16. Can it change that much in 8 days? Was July wrong?
