[QUOTE="SarahABC, post: 2471750, member: 546528"] Argh I just wrote a long reply and accidentally clicked off the page. Ok starting again. Thank you [USER=85785]@Lamont D[/USER] for your response. Test results: - over many years I have had around 8 random glucose tests and four were 3.0, a could were around 3.6 and a couple were fine. - HbA1c normal - fasting insulin normal (26) - OGTT which showed normal fasting blood glucose, peak of 6.2 and low of 2.6 I wasn't surprised at the low of the OGTT as (aside from the random 3.0s) I have felt very tired at times and been to the GP several times, only to be told it's probably depression! Fortunately I ignored that. I have a lot of T2D in my family but many are/were significantly overweight. I have always been a healthy weight and tall / slim (although of course I could easily be a TOFI and I do carry weight on my waist). I have problems with my ears (Ménière's) and there is a link with Ménière's and hyperinsulinemia. However endo told me I couldn't have hyperinsulinemia as my fasting insulin was ok.... I'm annoyed that my libre 2 isn't picking up my lows (lowest is about 4.1 where I know I'm lower when I feel like I did during the OGTT). I'm really interested what you say about the peaks. I think I do eat too much sugar at times. I can't shake the feeling this could be a very early stage of T2D. I've attached a paper which I'd like you thoughts on the 4 stages (starting at the bottom right of page one and ending at the top left of stage 2). Another question I have is, is it correct that hyperinsulinemia would be high insulin all the time? Or could it be an overproduction of insulin as a response? I'm surprised by my high reading of 9.8. I did think I was either ok or low (not high). [/QUOTE]
