"Useful markers for identifying those who may be insulin resistant (as measured by an insulin suppression test)."
"In nondiabetic, normotensive overweight individuals,
1-serum triglyceride concentration,
2-the ratio of triglyceride to high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentrations, and
3-fasting insulin concentration are useful markers for identifying those who may be insulin resistant (as measured by an insulin suppression test).
Optimal cut-points were identified as
TG 130 mg/dL (1.47 mmol/L), my TG was 64
TG/HDLC Ratio 3.0 (1.8 SI units), my ratio was 1.1
insulin15.7 µU/mL (109 pmol/L) my free insulin was 8.4
Sensitivity and specificity for the cut-points were 67, 64, and 57 percent, respectively, and 71, 68, and 85 percent, respectively."

My waist is 41.5 inches (over 40" for metabolic syndrome)
HDLc is 60
TG 64
BP good on Ramipril for DM2
On my Advanced Lipid Test by Liposcience, I scored 43 which is normal as a Insulin Resistance Score
