I suffered with neuropathy symptoms from January. I have many symptoms of diabetes and often tingling, have pain in my left side.

My fasting is normal, my OGTT is normal.

Just my lunchtime and dinner values are higher. Sometimes my 2 hour level also 7-7,5. (Within the 2 hour is changeable 7,5-10,7, the highest is the 1 hour level)

I am on low carb diet in the last 5 years. I had pain in my knee too which allways become stronger when my blood sugar is over 7,5 mmol/l at any time. Also had OGTT in 2012 just my 1 hour value was a bit higher 8,6 mmol/l.

Has anyone similar problem? I have strong pain in my lower back (MRI was ok), knee, tingling in my left side and everything is worse if my bg is over 7. I am worried if the GP send me away after a normal OGTT...
 
Welcome to the forum, Maria83. It's quite possible that you don't have diabetes of any type, and that your neurological issues have a different cause. So, keep asking your GP to investigate and refer, if needed.
