[QUOTE="JoKalsbeek, post: 2587751, member: 401801"] 42 is indeed the very lowest possible number you could see for a prediabetic diagnosis. If it'd been 41, no-one would've said a thing. And your friends' doc, well... Most docs don't do anything until someone's actually diabetic already. Prediabetes often doesn't even register on their radar as it doesn't usually get medicated or treated. I'm surprised you got sent to an NHS course, actually. Nice to know your doc takes T2 seriously, but their response may have triggered more anxiety in you than was called for under the circumstances. You went low carb and got back into the non-diabetic range. That's an excellent way to do it, and you did. If you don't trust a HbA1c, trust that: You took action, and it worked. Now breathe. You did what you could do, and it had the desired effect. Yay, you! [/QUOTE]
