Default Shucks and thanks Mrs D!

Chromium AND insulin resistance, huh? Guess I gotta do more homework!

I was diagnosed in the very early '70's loong before it was trendy after an 8 hour GTT. Back then a GTT was a real chore, as needles used and the blood taken was much greater. Later, more recent tests were 2-3 hours long and all came out within the 'normal' margins, and I did get copies and look to see if anything was near the super lo's or hi's and nothing close to an issue.
So I did what I always do and I READ all that I could find about it all and how to cope. Gimme my carbs when I get lo and I'm OK... go figger.

I agree with you about medical 'trends'. It's like foods? Eggs are good for you, then not, then good... then substitute any other foodstuff for eggs and see the cycles. AND the Cholesterol thing? Yep, yep and yep!

I am loathe to take one MORE supplement? But Will check it out and see. Thanks with all my - you are one amazing resource! - j
