Insulin resistance?

Is this insulin resistance?

Hi @Grace30666 , are you asking whether those graphs indicate insulin resistance? Looks like you have two very brief spikes over 10 but otherwise (to me, and I'm biased because I'm an insulin using T1) they look very good.

Here's a link that may help - it shows what happened when a group of non diabetics wore cgms for 10 days...

Continuous Glucose Monitoring Profiles in Healthy Nondiabetic Participants: A Multicenter Prospective Study - PMC

Use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) is increasing for insulin-requiring patients with diabetes. Although data on glycemic profiles of healthy, nondiabetic individuals exist for older sensors, assessment of glycemic metrics with new-generation ...

And I'm curious, what have you set your range as? (If it was 4 to 10, which is common for T1s) then you'd be at nearly 100% so am guessing it must be much tighter.)

But I freely admit that I my knowledge of MODY (other than it being genetic and common in families with lots of diabetics) is very limited,so not sure how relevant my observations are.

There is no way to tell from those graphs alone.
From your other thread I take it you're currently being tested for MODY but don't have a definte diagnosis yet?

All types of diabetes are defined as having high blood glucose (unless treated well), so numbers do not tell you what type you have.

Do the spikes and drops correlate with eating?
