I have chatted with the dr for two years with no answer. I started losing vision in the left eye and I also had some diabetic type sores. They would clear up with cephalexin. I have had three fasting blood tests and the first was 105..then 99 and 99..the a1c as I posted was 5.8. The dr says no diabetes and he has no idea why I think I may be diabetic. I am going by reports that I have read which show that even mildly elevated glucose levels can affect vision. The eye drs all say they have no idea why I can't see. lol I guess nobody knows. I know I have gained fifty pounds since I had lasik surgery on my eyes and that weight gain is probably enough to cause type 2? The results do look like a non diabetic but I will have to check in June and see what is going on and see how my glucose levels are doing.
