A member asked:
What does it mean if husband has diabetes and was told he had a count of 470 on his hemoglobin after a blood test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You mean 470 GLUCOSE: You can not have 470 on hemoglobin and you are confusing it with blood sugar and the other number you need is hemoglobin a1c which may be single number or in teens your husband needs treatment for his diabetese.
