[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 1999342, member: 480869"] A week after the hb1ac of 54 I had a 7.3 fasting that I insisted on as I was in denial about the whole thing. Dr and dn were happy to diagnose on just the hb1ac. No osmotic symptoms as required. Just overwhelming tiredness. But then I was also low on b12 and ferretin so hardly fair to say which was contributing what to that. And had recently had half my thyroid out so a lot of metabolic adjustment was happening then too. Had I been told I was a suspected diabetic and then given the 3 months assuming I reacted the same then I would not be diagnosed as the second hb1ac 3 months later was prediabetic. It’s all a little arbitrary in low diabetic ranges I think. [/QUOTE]
