If one (or more) of the following is true for you, then you probably have insulin resistance. - one (or more) of your brothers, sisters or parents has been diagnosed with diabetes. - you have a history of polycystic ovary syndrome. - you have a blood sugar level that is not quite high enough to be diabetes, but it is higher tnan normal. It means you have more risk of getting diabetes. - you are overweight (obese). - you have more fat around your waist than around your hips. - if you have other health problems like high cholesterol, high blood pressure and heart attack. - you have a history of diabetes during pregnancy. Please contact me if needed.<br><b>References : </b><br>American Family Physician Dear 1 Bored Unit,

I had 3 children with no signs of diabetes during the pregnancy and all 3 were in the 7 pound range. That was in my 20s. My blood sugars began to rise after a hysterectomy at age 41 (ovaries were not removed). That was 30 years ago and I am now insulin dependent.<br><b>References : </b><br>Hashimotos with diabetes I also have Hashimotos Thyroiditis.
