If your diabetic father is feeling unusually fatigued or anxious after pneumonia, its important to review his CBC and HbA1c levels. Infections like pneumonia can cause lingering weakness and might have affected his blood sugar control.

Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test or Take a HBA1C (GLYCATED HEMOGLOBIN) Test

Hi, I just received my blood report, and it shows that I am in the prediabetic range, with an HbA1c level of 6. I would like to consult on what steps I should take to manage this condition.

Hello, I have purchased a health policy and the policy issuer has raised concerns over the medical tests conducted from their end. My father HbA1c test has come out marginally increased at 6.2 in his blood report. Because of this, the issuer is not willing to provide the policy to my father. At present, my father is not taking any medicines and this matter is troubling me.
