Metabolic Sydrome X

Have any of you ever been diagnosed with this? I would assume it would
be type 2s, but I was curious. I have 2 of the 5 symptoms, 3 are
required for a diagnosis. My doc is thinking I am headed this
direction, especially since one of the symptoms I don’t have yet is
blood sugar problems. I am almost paranoid about this. I know that the
docs always think T2 with me (31, not obese, but not as skinny as I
used to be, had gestational, grandfather diagnosed T2 at 83, and a T1
son), but even as a kid they thought many times that I was diabetic. I
have had hypos all my life, and at any given time when I check on my
son’s meter I have been from the 50’s to the 200+ range. Mind you, my
HgA1c is normal every year, and whenever the docs check my fasting, it
is on the edge of normal. Anyway, was just wondering if this is a
purely T2 syndrome, or if both types get it.
