[QUOTE="pavlosn, post: 2079106, member: 22572"] Your fasting blood glucose last March was 4.4 which is in the normal range. Now you feel that you may have developed diabetes or prediabetes on the grounds of certain symptoms that may or may not be diabetes related or rather sound more like symptoms of diabetic complications. Although the onset of diabetes can come about rapidly, assuming that we are talking about t2 diabetes that I am familiar with, it seems unlikely to me that within three months you would have become diabetic and developed complications such as neuropathy. Also the most common symptoms of diabetes are thirst, drinking water continuously and frequent urination. You do not mention these. As others have already stated we can not offer any kind of medical diagnosis. You are doing well seeing your doctor so that you can be tested. At least then you will know. Also your doctor may be able to diagnose and treat whatever is causing the symptoms you describe, which could be unrelated to diabetes. In the meantime try not to worry too greatly and just to be on the safe side stay away from food rich in sugar and carbs [/QUOTE]
