Dear Dr.
Could you please analyse my blood test, give me your opinion and please advise, especially I need your opinion on A1C ( what is normal not just now itc on same level from 2013 , 5,7 or 5,6) and fasting glucose what is now 8.0 (and from 2013 is between 7 and 8), is this diabetes 2, and regardless that A1C is years in normal range?.
And especially your comment advise regarding cholesterol, total, ldl, hdl and ratio.
Also please advise if cholesterol require to go on statin, how to manage issue with glucose, due that statin can and have impact to increase diabetic problem?
Many thanks (—)
Recently blood test result follow
(unpublished results report)
Hello. Based on the results I would consider your state to be pre diabetic. A second test should be done to confirm. If second test produce similar fasting glucose results, it would indicate a state of diabetic. Yes, I think statins are recommended. The risk of statins causing and developing type 2 diabetes is present but minimal. Again, a second test should be done before making any decisions. Regards
