Brief Answer:
Get the test re-done from a different lab

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. It is good to know that the HbA1c is down but it would be good to get it re-checked from any other lab. I am also keen to know what specific steps you have taken in the meantime. It is very important to walk regularly in the morning.

Let me know if I could help further.

Regards
