| Eeyore,
It does tend to be a personal thing. However you do seem to be struggling with your diagnosis, I would be thinking along the same lines as Harold, if you are seeing numbers around 200 then it is likely that you have diabetes and not pre-diabetes. As Subby has said, you appear to be getting a lot of fluctuations from high to low. So seeing an Endo at this stage may well help you understand your diagnosis as either full blown T2 or something else. If I recall correctly, you have been asking your Doctor to run some other tests but this has not happened, if you see an Endo it is likely they will run all the tests you and they need to make a definitive diagnosis.
Personally I only see my GP, but there was no doubt that I have full blown T2 as when I was checked my FBG was 378 (21) with an A1c of 11.6%.
In reality, what harm can seeing an Endo do? Are you inclined to take the wait and see approach because you don't want to be told you have full blown T2, that would be understandable, but it would be better for you and your diabetes management to get a proper handle on your exact status.
