Scientists pinpoint early warning stage before prediabetes (medicalxpress.com)

My doctor in the US just waits for me to get sick enough to push some drug, then berates me to double my dose while shrugging off my complaints of chronic chest pain and dizziness. My friend in med school said she probably gets kick backs from drug companies. My health insurance is like $450/m and covers jack shit.

This article sounds exciting in a world where doctors care and try, though. I’m probably pre-diabetic but I’m not sure how to test my insulin sensitivity as the researchers suggest.
