Hi, Welcome to HCM.
Based on the information you have given, high glycated hemoglobin is diagnostic of diabetes and suggests that that you have had high blood glucose for a long period of time. In addition, high blood pressure can pose a serious threat to your kidneys. As we age the chances of developing these two conditions (diabetes and hypertension) are very high particularly if there is a family history and certainly should not be ignored. Although the angiogram looks clean, I will stress that you consult your physician at your earliest and establish a prevention/treatment plan for these impending cardiovascular conditions. In regard to your pain in your buttocks, it is difficult to advice at this time due to limited information. However, based on your general condition there is a possibility of infection that should also be examined.
Hope this helps.
