Being prediabetic essentially means you are diabetic, and the consequences tied to diabetes have likely already started affecting you. For many years, doctors have handled this completely wrong. Their response is, "Ah, well, be careful, you're prediabetic." What they ought to be doing instead is going after it and treating it as though you are diabetic. On top of that, odds are good that you have insulin resistance. When I got an insulin resistance test, the result put me right at the borderline, yet the damage from that insulin resistance has already been taking a toll on me. Should you be experiencing burning in your feet, act on it right away. Things will only get worse, progressing to numbness and potentially permanent nerve damage. Nerves that are damaged are very hard to fix, and it is possible they cannot be repaired. If repair is possible, seeing some recovery can take 6 months or a year. People think, "Oh, I didn't see anything after 30 days." You have to think long game. Try to reduce sugars as much as possible.
