Genetic counselor : There are a few types of inherited di and they're inherited in different ways. Your best resources: ask your husband's endocrinologist which genetic type he has. If unknown, genetic studies may be available. Also, consider genetic counseling. A geneticist may be able to determine this for you.

Good evening doctors. I had bloodwork. My A1c was 5.1, which I think is good, but my fasting glucose was 101, which I think is Pre-diabetes. How do you interpret these very seemingly different results?
