If the diabetes test is normal, should I ask for a glucose tolerance test too or should I be satisfied that I don't have diabetes and pursue other causes for my tingling/numbness?

If the fasting blood glucose is normal then you are not diabetic and a GTT would achieve nothing. Diabetes is usually present for a very long time before you get symptoms of numbness/ tingling so it isn't likely to be the cause of your problem. Pursue other avenues...such as neurological reasons for your symptoms.

I'm a 45 year old woman and was recently diagnosed as being a borderline diabetic. My doctor prescribed some medication, but before filling it I decided to do some research on the internet which led me to the methods. After reading this ebook and applying the methods, my scepticism turned to 100% belief. I noticed that my energy levels increased significantly and I felt more rested in the morning, my symptoms started going away.
I am very happy to tell you that I have been feeling better than I have felt in years and my doctor informed me that he will be taking me off my prescriptions if I keep this up.
I recommend you use the Type 2 Diabetes Destroyer to naturally reverse your diabetes.

High blood levels of glucose can cause several problems, including frequent urination, excessive thirst, hunger, fatigue, weight loss, and blurry vision. However, because type 2 diabetes develops slowly, some people with high blood sugar experience no symptoms at all. How to treat diabetes naturally https://tr.im/dwJzV
Symptoms of type 1 diabetes:
Increased thirst
Increased urination
Weight loss in spite of increased appetite
Fatigue
Nausea

If you think you have diabetes i think you should have a checkup and speak with your doctor just in case.

I have a blood disorder that causes my blood to clot too fast. I also have the numbness and tingling in most of my extremities. If you are not diabetic, do be tested for clotting disorders. I am including a link. Good luck to you.

Take a fasting glucose test. Ask your doctor for proper testing for the numbness and tingling, (if the test is negative for diabetes.)

Why all this self diagnosis??. What makes you think you have diabetes? go see a doctor and he will tell you what tests to have. Is it possible that this is connected to your supposed shingles ,all over large parts of your body?. Go to a good doctor , unless this is some kind of game. Good luck.

a fasting glucose may or may not give you a diagnosis, if you are looking for a diagnosis, ask the doc for the A1C test.
