Hello, I'm ana and I need to tell you my concern:
My partner measures 1.78 and weighs 90kg 35 years.We have tried to improve our diet, however I have been with a glucometer for several months and always get out of 100 fasting sugar:
130 - 111 - 127 - 114 - 106 ... values like this, a few days gives 127 other days has reached 106.
Today for example: on an empty stomach 107 (with on call plus glucometer)
After taking a decaffeinated with milk without lactose and skimmed, nothing more, at two hours I had it in 101
Is it likely to be in the prediabetes stage?He has already asked for a doctor to comment but frankly, until they do not see him above 140 I guess they will not give importance.
And we don't know what exams to ask for a good study and not just "measure glucose" had read in this forum to ask for the insulin exam but I don't know what it is called ...
Thanks for reading me and your answers.
They are prediabetes figures (fasting 105 to 124), I still think it is on a correction time to avoid falling into diabetes.What should be done:
a) A glucosylated exam.Here you can see the average glucose of the last 3 months.
b) Appointment with Doctor.They may send metformin, a low dose, to improve those glucose values in the mornings
Ideal would be to make a blood chemistry, blood hyometry and ego too, here you can review uric acid, triglyceride, cholesterol etc. To see other possible related variations because sometimes there is insulin resistance and lipid problems.
But because of the figures that you share and the weight, I think they are perfect in time to correct.Do not leave it.
Always exercise, even if you walk, it will help you a lot, daily, or 4 times a week.
Diet: Download carbos, eating vegetables, fiber, etc.
