Honestly, you are not going to get decent or quality answers from this site as you are talking in terms most people don't understand.\n\nRegardless, if your FASTING sugar is that high (not VERY high.. but is starting to be worrying), you need to see a doctor for medical intervention if it is required.\n\nIf you have a history of strokes and HTN, you need to be more concerned yet.  Speak to a professional please.

If you are talking about average  blood sugar.. 80 to 120 is considered average, or "good".

Its hard to say. You havent mentioned the exact numbers, for e.g. 200mg per what, a L of blood or is this result FBS or 2 hrs after you ate. \n\nIf you do think you have diabetes, you should go to your doctor and he/she would arrange a variety of tests to confirm it. Also there are three classic signs of type 2 diabetes that people usually experience (increased thirst, increased hunger, and increased urination). Again, these can vary according to the variations in our surroundings. So go to your doctor. Managing diabetes is not impossible and remember - Diabetes does not mean "stop eating food". \n\nIts very simple to manage diabetes, but if untreated - it can be fatal.

Theoretically if your blood sugar IS higher than 126 mg/dl before breakfast, it should be measured again and if it still is higher than 126 mg/dl then diabetes CAN be diagnosed... did your doctor measure your blood sugar before breakfast more than once? if he didn't then you should insist on him ordering the labs again because you MIGHT have the disease.\nHope you found this useful.\n\nYou should check out this link: http://www.diabetes.org/home.jsp

ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS   CHECK BLOOD GLUCOSE 30 MIN'S B/4 MEALS.  TAKE THE MEDICATION ACCORDING TO THE DOCTORS INSTRUCTIONS.  IN MY CASE I TAKE 1 SHOT B/4 EACH MEAL AND AT BEDTIME.   KEEP IT UNDER CONTROL OR IT WILL CONTROL YOU.  GOOD LUCK

It could be that your body is getting too overwhelmed by the sugar. I seriously suggest you see a doctor and have that checked out. And I would stay out of the chocolates for now.

Your glucose level would elevate in your bloodstream although if you are a well controlled diabetic you should have medications on hand to compensate for this so that it would not go above 140 or 150 unless you consumed ridiculous amounts of glucose.  If you are a diabetic - and unless your glucose was documented to be low - I would not recommend that you try this.

ask your phsician to check "fasting glusose level"\n\nI'm not an m.d., but used to have "hypoglycemia"

Fasting blood sugar should be 120 or less. Two, seperate readings of 125 or greater, while fasting, is indicative of diabetes. Normal range is 90 to 120 fasting.

Levels up to 100 are considered normal, and levels between 100 and 126 are considered pre-diabetes. You did the right thing by rushing him over to the ER.  With proper treatment they will be able to lower down to normal, do further testing to see what is going on, and provide the correct regimen for controlling it.

blood sugar values are as follows:\n       fasting ( 8-12 hours)     less than 110 mg/dl\n       2 hours pp (post prandial) less than   180\n       random (at any time other than above)  less than  150

Sounds like you DB is not under control.  Even a blood sugar taken 2 hours after a meal should not be that high...You may not feel symptoms of hyperglycemia because your body is used to levels that high and it would be a lot higher before you felt differently...You need to check you blood sugars at least 4 times a day, starting with a fasting blood sugar first thing in the morning, then 2 hours after every meal and at bedtime.  If your doctor can't control you with the pills, he may have to start insulin.  Go see your doc and follow the dietary calories that were ordered for you....\nGood luck...

According to a medical book normal is 80-120. I know some doctors consider anything over 100 high especially if it is consistently over that amount. Diabetes.org has a lot of info. Call their 800 # and they will send free a packet of info (or you can order it on-line) from the American Diabetes Assoc. \n\nIf you are diabetic only your doctor can say what is OK for you. Some are happy with well over 120 if it is an improvement from your non-treated readings.

there are 3 types of measured blood sugar(=glucose):1>FASTING PLASMA GLUCOSE 2>POSTPRANDIAL(2hours after intake of about 75gr glucose) and 3>RANDOM................ based on the definition of DIABETES-MELLITUS mentioned in the book "HARRISON`s principals of internal medicine"in each of the following situations the patient have DIABETES: 1>fasting plasma glucose=126mg/dl or more 2>postprandial plasma glucose=140 or more and 3>random plasma glucose=200 or more WHEN THERE ARE ESPECIAL SYMPTOMS(like polyuria/polydipsia/etc.)

Normal blood glucose upon waking should be relatively low.  Before eating, a normal healthy person should be between 70-110.  \n\nFind another doctor for a second opinion.  I tell you this because 4 years ago I was doing all of this same thing -- except because of a chronic dry mouth condition I didn't realize I was drinking more water.  I thought I had a bladder infection.\n\nMy doctor used my urine to check for bladder infection and ran another quick test to check for protein -- she reported to me in 10 mins that my bladder was fine -- it was Diabetes that was my problem.  \n\nI was 36 yrs old -- I had lost 45 lbs in 3 months because of a recent divorce and child custody issues.  I was stressed out after my husband just left, I had to sell our house, move from 1400 sq ft to 800 sq ft and figure out how to move on. \n\nI was put on oral meds -- because it was adult onset the dr assumed I had Type 2.  It wasn't working.  I found another dr and had more testing done -- it was discovered that I am actually Type 1, I am now insulin dependant.  I also have a second autoimmune disease:  Sjogrens -- which will give all the other symptoms you are having: chronic fatigue, low energy, short term memory loss, night sweats and other wonderful things. \n\nGet a second opinion -- and tell the dr you choose what your suspicions are.  At best, ask for a full blood panel to also check your hormones -- this could be something hormonal and is causing your sugars to be affected.

There is a possibility of having high blood sugar content periodically without being diabetic... however, it is a tricky tricky thing to deal with.  \n\nIf you have a high sugar count, keep testing.  Check for other signs and symptoms of diabetes.  Visit your doctor regularly.  It's very understandable that nobody wants to have diabetes.... but it is better to know than leave it untreated.\n\nI would recommend visiting some sites with diabetes symptoms for monitoring purposes.. although please don't just stick with that.  Ensure you visit a doctor.. often if need be..  \n\nI have a *strong* family history of diabetes with effects ranging from organ failure to amputation.  Sometimes, simply taking one pill, or a few other minor inconveniences can prevent these horrible effects..  \n\nJust be careful..  people care about you, and want to ensure that you will be safe.   *hugs*

Total cholesterol should be less than 200, yours is normal. Fasting glucose should be at least 80-120. Have breakfast, lunch, dinner & 2 snacks. Avoid skipping meals, it might decrease your glucose level. \n\n5'7" for female should be:\nrough approximation: for every 5 ft allow 105 pounds, then 5 pounds for every 1 inch, therefore, 105 + 35 = 140-150 would be fine. It would depend on your frame, if you are small, medium or large frame. I guess you are a little overweight even if you are of the large frame. Am not sure with your jean size, we have small, medium & large jeans here in the Philippines.
