A member asked:
Does an a1c of 5.8 mean insulin resistant for someone my age?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, it does not necessarily means insulin resistance is present at your age. HbA1C put you in the category of glucose intolerance or prediabetes mellitus. Insulin resistance may or may not present in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
