CGM - Self administered OGTT results
My family has diabetics on both sides so I want ed to check my glucose with a CGM. My average glucose is about 73mg/dl going as low as 63 in the night.
I wanted to see if I had an insulin problem so I took 75g of fast acting glucose with 300 ml of water after 8 hours of fasting overnight.
As you can see the peak is quiet high at 155 mg/dl and then crashes super hard to 61:59 before going back to baseline at 135 minutes later.
I can’t find any information about this sort of reaction to an OGTT. What are possible implications I should discuss with my doctor?
My diet is about 2700-2800 calories with 235p 80f and 240-270c depending on my activity levels.
My h1ac is 5.4% but I over produce red blood cells and have to give blood often to reduce this so that might be throwing it off.
