A question. I saw earlier in this threat that FBG is not so important since insulin will cover it. Is A1C still something people would look at? I got sick last year for month - tons of inflammation. In addition to gaining 3-4 pounds a week for some period, my A1C started rising. Even after I was fine again it continued to go up (also weight remained stubbornly high at that high point). I initiated IF to get it under control recently. Any sense of what is the best way to track progress going forward? Is monitoring A1C sufficient? I am not diabetic. Just nosed my way into "prediabetic" (5.9). Any advice would be appreciated.
