Hi
A friend of mine (he's 46, thin to underweight) has, at the end of a few years worth of
health oddness and intolerances, got a hb1ac done at a pharmacists and the result
was 137. This equates to an averaged 90 day bg level of over 20mmol. They said
at the pharmacist 'see your GP', he tries to see a doctor but gets directed to see nurse.
Nurse won't do anything without a blood test first. I presume their blood test is the only
one they'll consider valid. Closest blood test appointment is mid-September.
Is there any way to get an actionable blood test done sooner?
