Am I experiencing high or low blood sugar symptoms?

When blood sugar levels sink, the body reacts by asking for energy and makes you feel tired, hungry, and weak. As a remedy, you can have a snack that contains carbohydrates, such as fruit or whole-grain crackers. Your sugar level will increase and you will be in a better mood. Diabetes management and regular eating are preventive measures against the occurrence of this problem in the future.

Am I at Risk for Type 2 Diabetes?

Based on the information you shared, it seems that your blood sugar levels have been improving, which is a great relief! Your HbA1c falling from 7.5% to 6.2% over time is a good sign. Stress can also be a contributing factor to blood sugar levels, and thus, it could be one of the considerations. Monitor your health, eat healthy, stay active, and have regular check-ups with your doctor to monitor your blood sugar levels.

Do I have diabetes with HbA1c 5.9?

A blood glucose test result of hemoglobin A1c level 5.9 tells you that your blood sugar level is a little bit higher than normal but it doesn't automatically mean that you are diagnosed with diabetes. Diabetes may cause you to have a dry mouth, go to the bathroom too often, and feel extremely hungry. The origin of these can be both hereditary and lifestyle.
