Looking at Hba1c there is no prediabetes even but there can be other hormones which can cause such symptoms you need to be physically examined by a professional.

when patient visits physically, doctors would recommend a test. they rarely diagnose anything on physical examination. i got checked up few days ago. with a internal medicine specialist. with all the these symptoms i also mentioned blood in stool. so he did sigmoidoscopy for that , but neglected all other symptoms. didnt give me any clue why im having these . i did hba1c test based on my own instics and info from AI

These symptoms are non-specific and can be caused by many different diseases. As you have already been evaluated by a Medical specialist. It is best to follow up with him for further management. Regarding your doubt of Insulin resistance you can get an HOMA-IR test done from Chughtai lab or any other lab you like to confirm or rule out your suspicion.
Your symptoms could be from dehydration or early insulin resistance. Keep water, eat balanced meals with protein, fiber and healthy fats, avoid sugary snacks. Do regular light exercise and monitor blood sugar at home. If thirst or cravings persist, schedule a check‑up.
If you’re feeling thirsty, craving sweets, and low on energy, a few supplements might help support early insulin sensitivity. Magnesium, vitamin D, and omega‑3 fatty acids are often recommended for metabolic health. Some people also use cinnamon or berberine, which can modestly improve blood‑sugar control, and chromium or alpha‑lipoic acid, which may help the body use insulin more efficiently. Start with one or two—magnesium and vitamin D are safe for most adults—and talk with your doctor before adding others, especially if you’re on medication. Keep monitoring your blood sugar and stay consistent with balanced meals, regular light exercise, and adequate hydration. If cravings or thirst persist, a follow‑up check‑up is a good idea.
