My new primary care physician wanted to to know whether I had ever been declared pre-diabetic by a doctor, or whether I had just declared myself one.

Yeah, just me.



Numbers Matter: 1-Hour Post Prandial Glucose Possible Predictor of Prediabetes Risk

"Previous studies have suggested that the 1-hour glucose level above 155 mg/dL is a better predictor of progression to diabetes than the 2-hour level. The researchers conclude that present findings, in conjunction with the other observations, suggest that individuals at high risk for developing diabetes could be identified earlier by measuring the 1-hour postload glucose level."
