I fessed to slipping off diet, after he listed with a stethoscope, he shook his head and said "you gotta lose weight" [whole different story] I asked about "some kind of A3C test or something?" and he said, well I do a hemoglobin 13C once a year, is that it?" I said "I dunno" After he explained what that test was, I am sure we're on the same page. So I guess he added that to the panel. He did say my last one was "normal" I asked how, and he said even people with diabetes can be normal or not depending on fasting, what you have been eating, etc.
