360 minutes - 3.7 (67)
420 minutes - 3.6 (65)
480 minutes - 3.9 (70)

In depth GTT- (Insulin ref 3-17) (c peptide ref 260-630) (cortisol ref 160-660)
0 minutes - Glucose 4.3. (77) – Insulin 2.2 – C peptide 323 – Cortisol 185
30 minutes – Glucose 5.4 (97) – insulin 14.9
60 minutes – Glucose 10 (180) – Insulin 37.2 – C peptide 2088- Cortisol 197
90 minutes – Glucose 8.9 (160)- Insulin 30.8
120 minutes – Glucose 7.3 (131) – Insulin 30.6 – C peptide 2109 – Cortisol 213
150 minutes – Glucose 7.2 (130) = no insulin taken
180 minutes – Glucose 5.5 (99) – Insulin 24.2 – C peptide 2177 – Cortisol 173

Another Glucocse tolerance test
0 minutes – Glucose 4.1 (74) Insulin 21 pmol
60 minutes-Glucose 12.9 (232) Insulin 292 pmol
120 minutes- Glucose 10.8 (194) Insulin 449 pmol

Glucose Tollerance test after a day and night of fasting
0 minutes- glucose 4.3
30 minutes – glucose 8.9 (160.2) insulin 13.6 mu/l
60 minutes – glucose 12.1 (217.8) insulin 19,2 mu/l
90 minutes – glucose 13.3 (239.4) mu/l
120 minutes glucose 14.1 (253.8)insulin 29 mu/l
150 minutes glucose 11.4 (205.2) insulin 38.1 mu/l
180 minutes none taken
210minutes none taken
240 minutes non taken
270 minutes glucose 2.9 (52.2)insulin 1.9 mu/l
 
 
Ok give me an hour or so to take that in. Good data mate.
Do you have a question for us?
 
du you think so....im so confused, ive been unwell for a very long time but from doing home glucose testing I seem to be getting a lot of my symptoms after eating when my blood glucose rises but then it drops to low levels, its so confusing. Also I cannot work out if my insulin levels are too high or low in these tests
 
my gp has said I cant have diabetes because I get low bloodsugars? thanks though
 
test your bg. then have what is considered a normal meal. test again.
 
I'm sorry, I don't understand your figures or why you are doing these tests. Have you been diagnosed diabetic? Maybe someone who fully understands these tests will come along and advise you.
 
No! Can't work it out, give us a clue or go see your GP!
Do T1 inject Insulin on a fast?
I thought you only injected before eating!
 
Hi bboop, just to let you know, I have removed other duplicate threads and left this one as it had the most replies.

So you haven't been diagnosed and yet you are taking insulin according to your data? How are you getting cortisol readings and all this data from a home blood testing machine?

I put this on the other thread.

None of us are wualified to interpret your readings. You have onvioysly got access to better data than I have from being a T1for 30 years, I could not give you my cortisol readingd to compare.. As I have no access to this data.

How are you getting access to all these detailed measurements? Its not from a simple blood testing machine.. Which is why nobody can help you, we cannot interpret data that we are not able to get from our own daily experiences...

Hello
If u r measuring ur endogenous insulin secretion, how u do it by urself? it cant be done i think. Otherwise Are u subjected to any research activity so that all these tests are done on u? Diabetes can be diagnosed with a fasting & postprandial glucose levels along with HBA1c.... c-peptide, GAD antibodies will help to know the type. Y do u want all these tests to know if u r diabetic while there are other simple ways??

I suspect the OP is from the US or a country with similar testing protocols? They appear to test for more things - ie blood levels of insulin as well as glucose - as part of their OGTT. It is never done to that level in the UK (or in my country, Australia).
 
l soppose insulonoma could be considered but l dont understand the data you would need to ask your dr.
 
I keep getting these "deja vu" type feelings. The data is great, and it would seem to be far more sophisticated than you'd get in the UK. In my case I paid for my c-peptide test, just the one. If there is anyone qualified to interpret these results, I salute you sir or madam. If your own doctor says you're not diabetic . . . . . . . . As has been asked on one of the other forums, there some info missing/required.

see another Dr, you can be diabetic and have low blood sugars before diagnosis. the low even has a term for it, when you rise and then crash low.
go back and ask for a GTT that is done by a lab, a home test is guessing. you need to eat more than 150g of carb per day for 3-4 days before test
