May, I'm of two minds about this. You've been following the CAD for a while, and while you're learning that it's a disaster for you, you haven't stay VLC long enough to lower your A1C. So, THAT could be elevated, and be an issue for future care/LTC insurance, etc.
OTOH, if you want to know what your recent long-term BGs look like, you could order an A1C from one of the internet labs that have doctors on staff, and referral labs all across the country.
That may calm your husband, too. I'm assuming that he's a reasonable man, and if you show him that you have a reasonable plan to get and keep your BGs under control, he will stop worrying so much.
Especially if you discuss the negative ramifications of being dx'ed as diabetic.
