A member asked:
My a1c is 6.0 but my glucose level is normal. am i still prediabetic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: An A1c level of 6.0 does put you in the pre-diabetic range. What is your fasting glucose level with testing done on plasma by an accredited lab, not home test? You could help your cause by losing about 10% weight and exercising at least 150 minutes/week.
