Hi,
Not sure if anyone is able to give me some advice or not to see if I am likely to have pre-diabetes?
My family has a history of Type 1, and I recently had a few bloods done at the doctors, including the 3 month glucose, and everything came back normal. I do sometimes feel 'hypo' around lunch after eating a bowl of cereal, so, out of curiosity, I have been checking my bloods in the morning after getting up, and then again if I start to feel shaky (This result is always around 4.8).
However, the morning fasting glucose is always, bar once or twice, at 5.5. Looking online, there seems to be some websites that feel this is prediabetes, and others not.
Does anyone know how likely it is I do have prediabetes? I am slightly overweight, but not massively.
TIA!
