Message: <blockquote data-quote="Anonymous Question" data-source="post: 472942" data-attributes="member: 49758">Anonymous question submitted:I have recently had HbA1c test and my results came back as 47. Doctor said this makes me borderline diabetic. I am not taking medication at the moment and have been advised to try lifestyle changes. I can't see how this will help, as I am not overweight, I eat healthily and exercise regularly. My dad is diabetic type 2 so I think it may be in the genes. The question I want to ask is can someone who is borderline diabetic still get symptoms of diabetes. For over 18 months I have been experiencing lots of different feelings/sensations - i.e. pins and needles, numbness in fingers, dizziness. 12 months ago I started getting a feeling as though I had something in my left eye (dry eye syndrome) and now I am getting really sore tongue with burning/tingling sensation/metal taste and my taste seems to have diminished. I am going through the menopause and before the diabetes test I was putting all these strange symptoms down to that, but now I am confused. Can anyone give me any advice.To submit a question, please go to <a href="http://www.diabetes.co.uk/ask-an-anonymous-question.html" target="_blank">http://www.diabetes.co.uk/ask-an-anonymous-question.html</a></blockquote>
