All the tests ie fbs/ppbs, self monitoring, oral glucose tolerance test, fructosamine and hbA1c have different uses for us doctors to prescribe medicines correctly. If u are over weight have a sedentary lifestyle, irregular food habits or family history of diabetes you should check fbs and hba1c every 6 months.
