Why would you get HbA1c levels checked when you’re just 28
The Sugar levels are far from being deranged
Don’t get too many unnecessary tests done and then feel anxious thinking about the Discrepancies in the readings
You should live a Healthy lifestyle with a Good Balanced diet and physical activity with Good Hydration and Sun Exposure
By the B12 levels I deduced either you’re a vegetarian or don’t take Non Veg too often
Get B12 Injections or get an IV Infusion of Optineuron to boost up the severely low levels of Vitamin B12 in Body
Then take Oral Supplements regularly and start increasing the intake of Nuts Yogurt Liver Fish Meat Eggs Cheese Milk and Dairy Products
Next Steps
Don’t correlate unnecessary tests please you’re very much fit just needs vitamin supplementation

Low vitamins do not affect blood sugar levels especially Hba1c . However they do indicate that your micronutrient needs are being neglected . Having a balanced meal paired with physical activity will help you in the long run .
Next Steps
Vit B12 deficiency is common in vegetarians so you can increase your dietary intake by including dairy and nutritional yeast . Vit D levels require supplementation .
Health Tips
If you’re worried about your blood sugar levels then just add a little more fibre and protein in your each meal and just walk 5-10 mins after major meals ( 3times daily)
