Insulin resistance,,: You likely are developing Insulin resistance where the sugar isn't getting into your cells but is remaining in the blood stream and causing the symptoms. Your glucose is not high but might have increased from your original baseline and your hba1c is borderline so it's likely sugar is in your blood that should be processed by your body so see dr for more tests, diet, and type ii diabetes meds.

See details: Your current levels of glucose and a1c are normal. It is unlikely your current symptoms are related to any prediabetic condition.

Prediabetes: Most people with prediabetes have no symptoms at all. And a1c of 5.7 does qualify as prediabetes but the test should always be repeated after 3 months to make sure the diagnosis is correct. Ask your doctor why you have dry skin and frequent urination. I can't tell you. Could be due to some meds you are taking for other issues.
