    My Son Has Pre Diabetes.... What Now ?

    I got the test results slightly mixed up. His fasting plasma glucose was 6. (I don’t know what that means) that was taken in the lab/hospital But his GP measured his hbacone again and it’s 6.one (the number one is not working on my keypad). That’s strange, why did the number go down from 6.3...

    My Son Has Pre Diabetes.... What Now ?

    Thank you very much Bulk. It’s funny you said that. Since I’ve seized off the steroid his HBac1 level went down to 6.1. But I’ll cut out the carbohydrates and see if that helps. Do you recommend any sort of books regarding healthy eating ?

    What does “cuspain” mean ? :). Do you think it could be diabetes? Pre-diabetes? This is confusing and doesn’t leave us in a good spot.

    My Son Has Pre Diabetes.... What Now ?

    Sorry ! I was concerned about my son’s hormonal levels and thought he was developing early puberty, so the doctor ordered hormonal types tests... including the hbac1. He noticed the HBac1 sugar levels and requested more tests to be done.

    My Son Has Pre Diabetes.... What Now ?

    No, but that was his results. He just mentioned he possibly may have diabetes but his test results are not high enough for diagnosis.
