Is 93 a good score. 100 was a risk it said but maybe it was close. That was my diabetes number

I don’t know. The way diabetes numbers work in the USA are different than here.

Maybe @Wave would know.

i looked it up and actually my score is considered “excellent”

i guess only 100 they start taking precautions

but even then its just pre-diabetic maybe


i think its the middle column numbers but i could be wrong

i just had a doctors appointment recently he said the score was good but i was paranoid it could get closer

are you pre-diabetic @everhopeful

I have to take Metformin. I think I’m officially diagnosed with diabetes. However, it’s not clear to me that it’s natural diabetes and isn’t just a side effect of Abilify.

That is to say, if I stopped taking Abilify would it go away.

My blood sugar levels immediately shot up when I went on Abilify and were normal before that.

Damn @everhopeful im sorry you have to deal with that.

I’m only a bit overweight but I bet antipsychotics can cause it without making you too overweight
