Hi all
So was diagnosed type 2 7 years ago. Since then I have kept my hba1c under 42, often under 40. I now take 2*500mg Metformin a day but was thinking of reducing.
I'm a bit puzzled about the criteria for prediabetes diagnosis. Some say under 42 (mmol/mil??) and some say under 100mg/dl.
If it's the latter I don't seem to stand much chance of getting out of the prediabetic range.
Usually I'm a daily average of 6.5mmol/l - 6.8.
I have dawn phenomenon so 5.7 mmol/l to 6.3.
Advice please
