[QUOTE="CrumblingWall, post: 2045307, member: 494805"] Just dug up a letter from an endo, dating back 2017 December. My fasting BG at the time was 4.5 mmol/l. My c-peptide, however, was 221 pmol/l which was below normal range. He mentions me being insulin resistant. How can one have below range c-peptide and be insulin resistant? I thought low c-peptide with normal BG means I am SENSITIVE to insulin, OR I actually have insulin deficiency and me being slightly low on the reference range while fasting means I am SUPER SENSITIVE to insulin? I will ask my GP, but I'd appreciate the contradiction I just found. [/QUOTE]
