While your fasting glucose is very normal your A1c is not. Most nbon

Diabetics shoud be no higher than 5.0-5.2 I would worry abotu one as

high as yours is though it si not even considered pre-Diabteic it should

be. If they caught Diabetic tendencies EARLY there would be less folks

with this issue. You need ot watch the carbs you eat and increase

protein and fats to replace the carbs oyu cut down on. Sex hormones need

ot be optimized as testosteroine lowers insulin reistsnace and eastrogen

actually stimulates the pancreas ot produce enough insulin. You would be

well advised to supplement potassium. Your body cannto use sodium

wihtout it and it si too lwo. I prefer it 4.2-4.3 for idea health. Slow

release potassium is best and regular OTC potassium is a wasted effort

as it is gone within 30 minutes. I woudl ask for a script for 10mEq

daily with expectation you may need double that at least. Biotin is an

excellent supplement to help glucose regulation and as you are low in

other B vitamins, it si a good bet this one you aldso need. I take

1000mcg a day and that is a good dose. Also you could try ALA as it

helps regulate glucose . 600mg in aslow release form shoudl be enough

ot hewlp you some but can be doubled if needed.

Triglycerides and AST will go down wiht proper amounts of T3 but some

Krill oil will help the Tri's even faster. I take 2000mg daily.

Thank you for your input, !

I am already taking an ALA supplement with Biotin in it, although I keep

forgetting to take the evening dose! I also take krill oil daily but I should

check the dosage on both these supps.

I apply compounded progesterone drops (4 daily, don't know dosage in mg). My doc

had me on 10 mg DHEA a day but I quit taking it when I discovered my cortisol

was low. Do you think I should start taking it again for estrogen/testosterone?

If so, does cortisol need to be increased? I am taking IsoCort 4-2-2-1. Last

cortisol test showed first a.m. reading at mid range and it drops through the

day until it is below range at last two readings. Lots of yawns in the p.m. Can

sex hormones be tested reliably via blood draw?

Do you think the thirst/urinary frequency is due to the imbalance of the

sodium/potassium? What causes this?

Thanks again!

I would prefer to recommend the end hormones oyu are lwo in be

replaced estrogne and testosterone. That si what I do and my DHEA is

coming up on it;s own albeit slwoly. Thirst is a common symptom form

high glucose and though your fasting is normal your A1c says you do tot

have normal glucose all the itme so gettign a glucose meter and checking

it first thing in the AM and then again an hour and two hours after a

meal would tell you a differnt story.
