All we have to do is set the threshold at 90 and we will have a lot more diabetics. Then we will sell a lot more pills. This reply is almost a joke, but maybe.
It is question of when it is proper to treat a slight glucose control system problem. Is the treatment clear of problems?
One thing I do know there are quite a few problems with being labeled a diabetic.
It would have served me wonderfully better if my doc had flagged my diabetes 10 years sooner. The numbness in my feet snuck up on me, and it didn’t have to happen….
Sure they would have sold more pills to me. Well worth it!!
