[QUOTE="Emile_the_rat, post: 1929676, member: 301751"] You should calm down, really. Nothing you have written in this post indicates pre-diabetes or risk of developing diabetes. Blood sugar of 126 mg/dl (7 mmol) 2 hours after eating are perfectly normal. If you were pre-diabetic it would be 140 mg/dl (7.8 mmol) or more at the 2 hours mark. 126 mg/dl are not high at all, but actually pretty good and healthy. When you start getting blood sugar over 200 mg/dl (11.2 mmol) we can start speaking of high. Also 103 mg/dl (5.8 mmol) fasting are normal and does add up pretty well with your HbA1c, as both test are within normal and not even pre-diabetic range. Fasting over 108 mg/dl (6.0 mmol) are pre-diabetic, while fasting over 126 mg/dl (7.0 mmol) indicates diabetes. So 103 mg/dl are really not bad. Also I would say feeling thirsty or dry mouthed after eating carbs are not enough to convince me you’re diabetic. It could simply be your tastebuds overreacting because you aren’t used to the sweet taste because of low-carb or keto diet. If you really were diabetic you would easily drink loads of water, constantly thirsty. Urinating often, and when I say often I mean several times in an hour, getting decent amounts each time. Feeling thirsty alone aren’t all to it. You have all reason to believe that you’re not diabetic. You’re not close to being diabetic by far :) Stop to think about what you should or not should do, and instead live and eat normally. Anxiousness can elevate blood sugar slightly, explaining your fasting blood sugar being close to 108 mg/dl. But it is still normal, and you should not worry :) [/QUOTE]
