“don't ignore any elevation in blood sugar that means there's been a problem for a long time already and and and patients should be also hyper vigilant about this i mean i've seen patients in that pre-diabetic camp and this is using an example of a male patient when they're when their insulin sensitivity is restored and their blood glucose you know comes down by an average of 10 milligrams per deciliter they'll say wow i have better erections all of a sudden and that speaks to even the microvascular damage that's being done long before you get to diabetes”
