[QUOTE="George775, post: 2743416, member: 585968"] This is in line with what I've been reading. The annoying thing is I exercise 4 and now 5 times a week. I walk multiple times daily every day. I do this in order to control my sugars which is why my A1C is 5.9 and not like 7. Over Christmas with less exercise and more eating I was 6.8. i told the doc this but I felt like he wasn't listening and more interested in the lab results. To be fair he probably has people teling him lies daily. I was hoping for a conclusive result but I still don't think I fit type 2 because I'm very lean, muscular and I don't eat junk in excess. I expected it i was a true type 2 my c-peptides would be through the roof along with my sugar. It's within the normal range and my fasting sugar was still high. Like you said this may well be early stages and I'll have to wait for more definite results. I'm hoping the medication proscribed don't have any significant adverse effects since I can't do anything more in terms of lifestyle changes. I did explain i go low at night usually about once a month. He said I was probably laying on the sensor. I showed him I was low 2 hours after being awake and he said the sensor might be bad and I should do a finger prick which is good but I was driving. I always go low 100% of the time while working out. To combat that I eat a protein bar before or during workout depending on my sugar levels. [/QUOTE]
