@johnnyv, I would also like to add that I have nerve damage and as a result, I noticed my fasting blood sugar was elevated from my normal before the damage. I am not a diabetic. You’re AIC levels are great. I eat a low carbohydrate diet for the benefit of less inflammation. I was never a big sweet eater so eating less carbs is not a problem for me. I exercise as well but I don’t think it has much impact on my sugar levels. I will find out in a few months when I see my PCP again. He didn’t seem concerned. At the time I was on the Keto diet. All the results were within normal limits even my blood sugar. It was a point below the high end of the range. Toni

I had seen an Endocrinologist several years ago his assistant suggested meds, but he thought it better to try diet and exercise. My doctor is retiring, so I will have to get a new primary next year. There is only one Endocrinologist in my area so I had to see her PA, they treat several patients with severe type 2 as well as type 1. I do practice low carb and exercise regularly and can push the numbers lower with what people call the 8/16 diet, limiting eating to an 8 hr period but it is a harder diet to practice. I have had the issue for probably 30 yrs, and seen a few physicians, none really have any answers other than meds (eventually) or diet and exercise. I’m lucky I have a lesser version of hyperglycemia or type 2.
