Hello Dr. McConkey. Thank you for taking the time to respond to my questions and for taking the appropriate action moving my 2nd posting. I have bookmarked the two Mayo Clinic URL's and found them to be extremely helpful. I believe I have prediabetes for Type 2 diabetes because I am overweight. I have left a message for my Primary Care Physician who took my height, weight, HGB A1C (6.2%) and Average Glucose A1C (131mg) to show I have prediabetes. Thanks to your referred websites, I was able to make a complete list of questions to ask, including the purchase of tools to measure my blood glucose. I am in the process of keeping a daily log of my daily intake of calories, sugar, carb, and sodium so I can avoid crossing over the line of numbers. Working on my diet to include daily exercise and consume only appropriate fruits, vegetables, whole grains, high fiber, assorted nuts/beans/seeds, water/vegetable juice, etc. I have stopped eating any type of red meat and pork which was easy for me to do. I have also purchased online from Amazon three books on Diabetes, and 2 cookbooks. I am extremely motivated to reverse this diagnosis and to loose 65 pounds. Once again you pointed me to the sources I needed and found to very helpful and I thank you for that. Currently waiting to here back from my doctor. Thanks again Dr. McConkey.
