As a full bore diabetic (50+ years) I want to weigh in here. @canada @ronaldtseng (do you have 2 handles?) it looks like you are taking your prediabetes seriously and trying to take good care of yourself. The A1C test is a test that can give you an idea of how your blood sugars have been over a 3 month period. Doing the test every 2 weeks is probably not necessary. But your numbers do look really good. Do you also use another blood sugar monitoring system such as a glucometer?

So you take Invokana (a non insulin diabetes medication). At Mayo Clinic Connect we don’t diagnose or prescribe. We share our stories to support and encourage each other. @scottrl had a good point about the possibility of adjusting the dose. Who prescribes your Invokana? Could you review your A1C, your blood sugars and your Invokana use with that provider to get a professional medical opinion on what would be the best next steps in your treatment?
