My HBA1C came down from 9.7 to 5.5 and went up to 5.7 and is stable at 5.7. I have not taken any medicine. I was able to do this by making minor changes in my diet and by increasing the physical activity (walk two Kms a day on an average). I have tested my HBA1C for three qtrs and is stable at 5.7. Doctors initially said that I am diabetic when they saw my report showing 9.7 but now they are saying I am not diabetic. My fasting is always below 100 when tested at home glucometer was 55 when I did a test in Lab. PP is always below 130. Can HBA1C go high without being a diabetic. Has my diabetes reversed or am I miss diagnosed. Please note our that my initial HBA1C was tested confirmed by two major hospitals one in India and one overseas. Can someone please clarify.

You are diabetic as per your hba1c report. You have not given you sugar level s at that time. Change in eating habits and exercises are responsible for your sugar control and are advised to all patients. Some patients respond very fast. Continue diet and exercise as being done but usually observed that after one year patients start requiring medicines for control in addition to diet and exercise treatment.
