A question for mrs D or anyone with knowledge about Diabetes.
I was diagnosed with alcoholic P/N about 4 years ago. The diagnoses was based on my history and normal blood sugar and otherwise a very fit 50 year old.
That was in Bangkok but recently I have received a disability pension In Australia so i decided to see my mothers neuro (she had parkinsons and F/M)
Anyway during his initial consultation he did an EMG and when it was finished he clasped his hands and with a big smile declared I have Diabetec P/N.
This is without any blood tests and with me declaring i have drunk heavily since 18years old (thought he would have jumped at the prognosis

)
He prescribed a slow glucose test which i didn't have time to wait for and went back to Bangkok where i am now
today did a fasting blood sugar test , no food for 9 hours and my result came back normal, it always does.
90 < 70-110>
question, is it possible to have diabetes in this range?
I have no symptoms
Should I get the longer glucose test? dont really want to pay out of pocket for nothing.
Is my Neuro okay? A big diagnoses and he is really certain, all from an EMG
