Hi
First post. 51yr M .Just wondering if OGTT can actually improve or once it is abnormal it only stays the same or gets worse.
I was diagnosed pre-d on 9/2016 with a Fasting of 5.6 and a 2hr OGTT of 10.6. My previous readings over the years were as below.I was never informed that I was borderline pre-d in the past even though ,looking back at these results I can see Impaired results 9 years ago.I take no medication{ for diabetes} and have no symptoms.All other bloodwork except HDL-C is normal.
Fasting Results 5/03 5.8 mmol/L , 3/08 5.0 , 7/2015 5.4 , 9/2016 6.4 Impaired then 2 weeks later 5.6 when the OGTT was taken.
HBA1C 10/07 5.4%, 03/08 6.4% (never mentioned by DR) 12/2016 5.0% and most recent 10/2017 4.8%
Just wondering where you think I am in the scheme of things and whether I can hope for a OGTT improvement.I have also gone low carb since 10/2016 and lost about 28kg.
