What clarification would you like to have about your c peptide levels ?you are quite young( your profile says 63 and you stated you are 23, which one is right?) at the moment and I wonder if you are on the right treatment at the moment. I would be more worried about your high sugar levels instead. You stand the risk of having complications of the levels are not brought under quickly . Get in touch with a doctor and get things under control before it is too late
