The GTT can be painful/brutal if you get hypoglycemia during it.
And it is only as good as the doctor who can interpret it. Some doctors are poor at this and ignore the low readings as problematic near the end. This is why I suggest a fasting INSULIN instead. This will show elevated insulin, and reflects insulin resistance.
Really high and really low sugar readings I believe impact the nerves. They starve in both scenarios. This is why supplements help, as they improve energy output in the mitochondria of the cells when glucose is unavailable. Acetyl carnitine enables fatty acid metabolism when glucose is low, for whatever reason.
