I don't know why they even do HgA1c. It does not really tell you if you're diabetic or the extent of any metabolism problem. They should routinely do the OGTT instead.

I disagree.

The OGTT can be torturous and post prandial glucose testing far easier and more indicative of what's happening metabolically in real world conditions.
