[QUOTE="Ronancastled, post: 2523829, member: 517232"] That 86 is your HbA1c, an average blood glucose reading for the past 12 weeks. Non-diabetic would be anywhere from 20-41. Prediabetic is 42-47 & anything over 47 is considered T2. Big push back against them in recent years amongst the diabetic community. Evidence they actually increase your insulin resistance & have very little long term benefit. Did they check you for T1 antibodies & c-peptide levels. Might be worth doing to rule out T1 due to the genetic link. Don't beat yourself up, good news is you probably have huge wiggle room on weight & exercise [/QUOTE]
