I had an A1C of 6.5 and my doctor diagnosed me as pre-Type II diabetic and prescribed Metformin. Got off it after a couple weeks of problems. Started keto, got a glucose monitor and have lost 20 lbs, lowered my A1C by 0.9 to 5.8 and my glucose by 25 points.
Luckily you have a very progressive doctor. Most would have declared you diabetic for life.
