About 8 months ago i had a fasting blood glucose test with other cbc blood work......mine was a 99

Is the fasting test good at finding diabetes?
I know of the a1C test but never had it as far as I know...I've had lots of blood work done at emergency rooms over the years but nothing showed up....and they took a lot of blood.....

I seem to have a lot of symptoms along with non stop left back pain just below bottom rib.....

I'm very worried.....very...

This is a question for your Doctor, not here. It's as much a lifestyle question as glucose reading, so an answer must be given by somebody who's qualified to answer.

So is it your pancreas or diabetes?

Why have you been in emergency rooms so many times BadCompany?

And I read that chickens lay eggs.

That doesn't make me a chicken.

My hubby is t1 since age 4. It's a very good test as it detected his as a child when breast showing extreme symptoms. It's also been accurate for my pregnant friend who had gest. Diabetes and she had pregnancy hormones going on.

This was 91 btw.
