Hi
My older teen Is under metabolic team as they have ketotic hypoglycaemia. A recent blood test shows very high c peptide readings of over 3000, insulin levels of 427pmol/l and a normal HbA1c levels. This wasn’t a fasting blood test and was just after lunch. Also raised uric acid. As is standard with these appointments, another one isn’t booked until June and no one has followed up on these blood test results with us. I am not sure what this means as this seems to indicate insulin resistance but they cant go low carb as if they do they produce ketones and their blood glucose drops. Any ideas?
