Diabetes Blood Test - Diagnosis and Monitoring (HbA1c)

Diabetes Blood Test – Diagnosis and Monitoring (HbA1c) in Epsom

The Diabetes Blood Test – Diagnosis and Monitoring (HbA1c) is a key test for diagnosing and managing diabetes and pre-diabetes. This test measures your HbA1c (glycated hemoglobin) levels, providing an overview of your average blood sugar levels over the past 2-3 months. It's an essential tool for both diagnosing type 2 diabetes and monitoring blood sugar control in those already diagnosed.

Why Choose the Diabetes Blood Test – HbA1c Test in Epsom?

If you are at risk for diabetes or concerned about your blood sugar levels, this test is a vital step in understanding your health. Pre-diabetes is a condition where blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. It is an important stage where lifestyle changes can prevent the progression to type 2 diabetes.

By testing your HbA1c levels, this test can help you:

• Diagnose diabetes: Elevated HbA1c levels are a key indicator of type 2 diabetes.
• Monitor blood sugar control: If you're already diagnosed with diabetes, regular testing helps ensure that your blood sugar is within target ranges.
• Detect pre-diabetes: A higher-than-normal HbA1c reading can indicate pre-diabetes, which is a critical warning sign for diabetes prevention.

What’s Included in the Diabetes Blood Test – HbA1c?

The HbA1c test measures the percentage of hemoglobin in your blood that is coated with sugar, reflecting how well your blood sugar has been controlled over the past few months. It's an essential test for diagnosing pre-diabetes or diabetes and for ongoing monitoring if you're managing diabetes.
