I am 52 years old and I was diagnosed to have pre-diabetes when I had my annual company-sponsored executive check-up two weeks ago because my Fasting Blood Sugar was slightly higher than normal. I was advised by the doctor to reduce — I am 195 lbs but only 5’6" tall — and to exercise, otherwise he said I will probably develop diabetes. Is he right? What exactly is pre-diabetes, and how is it treated?
