[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 137238, member: 18023"] You could eat a lot of carbs and sugary things for a month before an A1C test, likely that would put your A1c over the top, assuming your A1C is borderline, which is 5.6 with 5.7 pre-diabetic with Labcorp. A1C tends to be weighted towards more recent blood glucose readings. You could also ask for a glucose tolerance test, that might indicate you have insulin resistance already. Before taking the test, ask your doctor if he would prescribe metformin based on the results of that test. [/QUOTE]
