GTT Results

Sammie · 05-25-2003, 11:24 PM

I have had my gtt, and the result was - yes i am ir.

The doc said he has NEVER seen insulin levles like mine before, what do you all think?

Insulin was; 460mU/l
Glucose was; 13mnol/l

Did anyone have similar results?

The reason Im asking the aussie and Kiwi's is you all have the same standards for insulin , glucose ect.

Are there NO aussie or kiwi women here with IR?

Hey Sammie.
Sorry I can't help either.......surely there is someone around who can though!!
I'm with you guys, it has been super quiet here lately. I don't know what's going on.

hi Sammie, i have ir, but don't have a copy of my latest gtt result. I saw it at my doctors office, I think the third glucose one was about 10 point something, so a little bit lower than yours. Not certain, but i thought it was supposed to be around 8 by the 3rd blood take? Cant recall on the insulin, sorry.
I will ask next time i'm there for a copy. They put me on met so i hope that will help. I did see a post sometime ago with a US site that listed normal ranges etc, couldn't find it again, thought it could be online ambulance or similar name. Perhaps an Aus diabetes website would have the values we use here? I didn't realise the levels varied btwn countries? Not sure if this one is of any use, but does list values/normal ranges etc, not an Aussie site though?
