There's a standard formula for calculating your A1C based on your average glucose level. If you get a dexcom G6, (about $200), you can monitor your glucose levels constantly, and know what your A1C will be. The app gives you rolling averages for 2 days, 7 days, 14 days, and 30 days.
Extremely useful. I'm not a T2 diabetic, but did have a slightly elevated A1C at my last physical. I asked my doctor for a prescription for a CGM, she gave me one, and it has been a huge help in learning both how food effects my blood sugar, as well as how blood sugar effects my mood.
I think everybody regardless of their current health should have one of these things. Blood sugar is a fantastic look into sorts of aspects of your health.
