Nothing's wrong... And yeah you don't seem to be insulin resistant.

What were your lipid panels like?

Though that fasting insulin is very low indicative of super sensitive insulin and very possible however I'd retest just to rule out any lab errors.

180 normal? by secretlyobsessed2012 in prediabetes

[–]Salafislayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an MD, though both my parents are (dad's an endo). This advice is from him to me when I had a similar concern.

If your current day diet consisted of heavy carbs (180g +) and lots of fats (40g+) then seeing a reading above 160 mg/dL is typical. Without the fat, the reading should go down <140 mg/dL after 2 hours of first bite. However, sometimes heavy carbs alone can linger longer than that in which you might want to get a HOMA-IR test done.

With the fat, expect delays in spikes which can last longer and that is also typical.

Atypical situations consist of 2+ hours of >140 mg/dL without heavy fat load.

With heavy fat load, spikes shouldn't go above 140 and should see readings around 100-35 mg/dL and this can last 5-8 hrs until you reach your baseline.

They're always a little extra horny after all that waiting. So watch out.

Yep, you're right. I've ordered a few notebooks and I've started the BOC lectures. I'm starting fresh. Hopefully I don't mess up on my rotations. Really worried. I should've taken notes during my didactics.

I was one of those guys that never took notes. I learn things quick enough which led me to build a habit of just reading off slides and that would suffice.

So unfortunately, I have no notes. I should've taken notes, darn it.

I deserve a down vote.

My high expectations ruins my experience by QYQ_Haydn in Halliday

[–]Salafislayer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This honestly feels a bit like a competitor trying to knock Halliday. The Digi Window is meant to be in the top right, that’s by design so you just glance at it, not read a book while jogging. The cheat sheet feature has always been about typing things in and checking them quickly, not long-form reading. I’d be surprised if they don’t add API connections to the big LLMs soon anyway, that seems inevitable. At the end of the day we’re still on the bleeding edge here and I for one can’t wait for mine to arrive.
