I would like to raise some clarifications on the results of my husband.

My husband has not been on medication for blood sugar.

His blood sugar has always been less than 7 (but more than 6 - just forgot the exact number) on fasting blood sugar and Hemoglobin AIc. On my insistence, he asked our PCP during his annual physical examination to give him the glucose test (I suggested to be more than 2 hours - as recommended in this forum). However, the PCP only has 2-hour Glucose Test in their computer system. The results are as follows:

Glucose, Fasting - 103 (65-99) High
Glucose, 1/2 hour - 161 (65-199)
Glucose, 1 hour - 119 (65-199)
Glucose, 2 hour - 108 (65-139)

A medical staff called him advising him that there is no need to see the doctor since his 2-hour glucose test is normal.
It appears he is pre-diabetic, but I need confirmation from those who understand the test better.

Thank you.
