Don't beat yourself up thinking you could have prevented it by eating better. Our metabolisms are mostly genetic, and your Dad had it. Perhaps you could have delayed it but odds are that eventually it would show up. Lots of people can control type II diabetes with their diet. Fasting glucose below 93 says your pancreas is still working well enough to get your glucose down. Maybe it just doesn't work as fast as a normal person. You could be Insulin Resistant and not Type II. The endo will probably give you an A1C test which will tell them how your glucose has been acting over time. Cutting out sugary drinks and high glycemic food might make a big difference for you. Keep us posted.
P.S. My grandmother, Dad and uncle had it. Dad was diagnosed at 55 and my uncle around age 50. Gives me something to look forward to. Ha! |
