In Feb 2012, i had a 2-hour glucose test and my number on the 2nd hour was 72. MrsD said that I may not be considered as a reactive hypoglycemic yet but she explained that reactive hypos can be on its way to being pre-diabetic. I have always been on the skinny side, so i thought i was safe (with no family history to back me up) but just one year after, my BG is elevated enough to be considered as pre-diabetic. Mrs. D hits it on the spot!!!

Well, please "predict" that my PN will get better. If that happens, i will come see you a give you my personal hug
