Matt, how much does fasting blood glucose numbers vary from week to week? About two months ago when I was in ER for pissing they tested my blood glucose and didn't mention anything. Last week I got a GP, did bloodwork and said I'm prediabetic since my fasting blood glucose was 5.6mmol/L. He said it wasn't serious but that they would test again in three months and go from there. He mentioned I should watch my carb intake and start exercising (fuck you, I already do that shit). Prior to this visit he gave me shit about how skinny I was and said I needed to eat more. God fucking dammit. A lot of people on one side of my family are diabetics, but what the fuck. For the last six months I've been averaging 1400 - 1800 kcal per day, half carbs (not ice cream and soda, etc), the rest is protein and fat. I eat veggies regularly. I'm planning on getting a blood glucose meter and fucking around with it for the next few weeks, but I'm curious if 5.6 is actually something I should be concerned about, or is he being overly cautious? I mean what the fuck. I wonder if I don't have enough insulin or partially insulin resistant? I also wonder if this would have any effect on me never being able to put on weight (even when I was eating 3000kcal consistently). But I really don't know much about the diabetus... I'll also add that my sleeping pattern has been really fucked lately, but I don't know if that would have any effect? One more question, can I test elsewhere than my fingers, like my thigh?
