Hemoglobin A is a widely used diagnostic tool for monitoring glycemic control in diabetes management. However, its accuracy can be influenced by various factors.

This case highlights the importance of considering conditions that may affect erythrocyte survival, and the potential interferences when interpreting Hemoglobin A results to ensure accurate diagnosis and effective management of diabetes.
