Doctor my Hba1c levels are 9 and average sugar is 217. however blood sugar fasting is 104? Am I a diabetic? I got checked on another hospital and they said that my blood type is abnormal and therefore my Hba1c is high. I am really confused.

Hello, Thanks for the query. Usually HbA1c% equal to or greater than 6.5 % is considered as diagnostic for diabetes. I am not sure about what different type blood (RBC) type doctor has said. Please mention the same. It is better if you get a Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) t done, that will give a clear idea about presence or absence of diabetes. Then do come back. Thanks.
