The HBA1C level of 6.5 signifies that one is prediabetic.

Dr. Bhanu Suggests...

Take a NEURONAL (PARANEOPLASTIC) AUTOANTIBODIES PROFILE Test or Take a AMA Test (Anti-Mitochondrial Antibody) Test

I did the HBA1C, OGTT, and TSH tests as recommended by a doctor at Cloudnine. My report shows HBA1C 9.7, average glucose 231.69, fasting sugar 191 high, 1 hour post load 326 high, 2 hours post load 398 high, and TSH 7.325 high. These values are higher than normal. What would be your suggestion regarding diet or medicines?
