[QUOTE="ziggy_w, post: 2144136, member: 323454"] Hi [USER=485395]@hazelzac[/USER], The OGTT is just barely in the prediabetic range (should have been 7.8 or lower at 2 hours). Fasting levels and HbA1c are great. It might be worthwhile to check at 1 hour in addition to checking at 2 hours after a meal. Some normal people spike after meals, which might not be a good thing. As people with diabetes or prediabetes, we generally look of a spike of no more than 2 mmol 2 hours after the first bite of a meal. Some of us are a bit stricter and also try to stay below 7.8 mmol at all times (but this isn't official advice). Jenny Ruhl (website bloodsugar 101) has a discussion on what are normal blood sugar levels. Here's a link:[URL]https://www.bloodsugar101.com/what-is-a-normal-blood-sugar[/URL] Hope this helps.
