Did she order an AC1 test?

I don’t see it i see
Comprehensive metabolic panel w/EGFR
Lipid panel
TSH 3rd gen
CBC

did not include hormones as I just checked those last month and for some reason it’s chesper to get that one done on my own without insurance than it is at the Dr’s.

I meant A1C, it measures your blood sugar over a 3 month period

Oh no she didn’t, sounds like that woulda been good, I’m just gonna get one of those finger stick blood sugar monitors. Probably not as good but st least can give me an idea of how low I get when it happens again and go from there

A1C is a better indicator. It gives a history of what has gone on. Finger stick only tells u what is going on in the present. My local pharmacy does an A1C test on the spot. Its $35 I believe, u dont need a script from a doctor.
