From what I've read, that's definitely defined as "prediabetes" (b/c you have hyperglycemia and hypoglcyemia together). However there's other literature that suggests such a low score would indicate further testing to find out the cause. I wonder, have you had any further tests? Thanks for the link...EXCELLENT ARTICLE, Thanks! Yes, there's no doubt the diabetic community has some of it wrong. Best, Stephanie Hi Daniel,

It seems that what we considered risk factors are not that relevant. It seems that a high fasting blood glucose is not even necessary to be diabetic and that it is the worse predictor of diabetes. It seems that fasting blood glucose as low as 95 are already sign of impaired glucose metabolism. It seems that a reading above 145 at any moment in the glucose tolerance test is the best predictor of diabetes. There are economical interests as to why the Diabetic Association don't change their criteria for diabetes diagnosis and risk. Considering this data it seems that many people with Reactive Hypoglycemia are indeed at risk for diabetes, because they have an impaired glucose tolerance. Reactive Hypoglycemia when connected with diabetes can be understood as resistant phase 1 insulin but excessive phase 2 insulin, whereas diabetes is resistant phase 1 insulin but unadequate phase 2 insulin. They seem to be the flip sides of the same metabolic issue. I have been diagnosed with Reactive Hypoglycemia. My highest reading is 250 and my lowest is 39. There are many diabetics in my family and none of them have diabetes markers: they are all thin, with no large waist and with low blood pressure. There have never been an overweight person in my family but still many are diabetics. Read this webpage.
