I measured my A1c for the first time in my life today and it is a 5.7 (ref range 4-6) which seems like almost pre-diabetes?
Fasting blood glucose was 4.4 / 80 one week ago. I don't measure it often but it has always been around 5.0 / 90. Shouldn't it be higher with that A1C?
- 2500mg metformin and 1000mg berberine around a year now.
- GH year round around 4IU before bed the last month I did go up to 12IU for a few weeks. Backed down to 6IU.
- I also take rosuvastatin 5mg daily for lipids. Statins can cause diabetes as you know. This might be a contributing factor
- Fasting insulin pre and post on weak body part days 10+10 since the last month only. I don't use long acting insulin at all.
What does this mean? Should I stop pre and post insulin completely? GH?
I'm not a fat ass either. 240 lbs very lean. My weight got up to 255 when I went on 12IU though. Water weight.
Surprisingly my IGF-1 is in the shitter too at 133 ng/ml. I believe it was around 50 without GH. I'm on tren though and that can lower it as far as I know. Last month I averaged 8IU GH daily and it's still so low. GH batch is janoshik tested. This is another question. Am I even getting anything out of GH?
