A member asked:
50 ur old male with elevated a1c (6.1) high fructosamine (2.31) and extremely low fasting glucose (60). what is the next step?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Does not make sense: A1c of 6.5 is diabetes. A1c of 6.1 is prediabetes. Prediabetes usually have 12 hr fastng bs between 100 and 125. Fasting bs og 60 is not diabetes actually it is low blood sugar or hypoglycemia. In this case you should not be worried as there is no diabetes and you should eat normally and make sure fasting bs does not drop below 70. Fructosamine is normal. Adults normal is 1.61-2.68 mmol/l.
