Let me preface by saying I'm still under investigation. My Hba1c came back as slightly but not definitively raised, and my fasting blood glucose is very good at 4.9-5.6 mmol. However its post meal recordings that have me and my doctor worried, to the point that he's confused entirely with what to do with me.
Usually at the 2 hour mark, my sugar can be in the normal range under 7.8mmol or it can be low for some reason at 3.5-4.0. However an hour later, my symptoms suddenly start to kick in. I get breathless, thirsty, my thoughts race, my eyes can blur or my head hurts, and my blood sugar rockets up to between 8-12 mmol out of nowhere. There's no change in my activity and I don't eat or drink anything else, the spike just happens.
As we're worried about my cardiac history too we must figure out if I'm actually diabetic or not. The first two tests say I'm not, but post meal says I at least have prediabetes at best. Very confused!
