Yes, get tested for sure
Hi All,
I am a 31 year old male. Since last two weeks i was noticing that I was feeling hungry very often, even after taking lunch/dinner. So I decided to get my Blood Glucose checked. I got an Accu-Chek Blood Glucose Meter and checked at home. Given below are the results..
BG level Fasting - 102
BG level - 170 (1hour after dinner)
BG level - 170 (2hours after dinner )
What do these symptoms suggest? Am I pre diabetic? Please help me in this regard.
Thanks
Your fasting is a little bit high, and the 2-hour postprandial is more than a little high - in two hours it should have dropped back near to the level of your fasting. If you really want to know the damage done you should test at one hour after your first bite - that will prob'ly knock your socks off, but it will tell you how high you actually spiked on the meal before your levels began to drop back down. Try that a few times.Thanks all for your response......
I have scheduled a doctor appointment for next week.
Meanwhile I did some tests today...given below are
the results..
BG Fasting - 104 (8 hours after dinner)
BG - 123 (2 hours after lunch)
What to infer from these figures?
Samantray these readings are not normal. Having said that it could have been worse. Have you been to the doctor yet ?Thanks Shanny...
Well i tried to see how much the BG is being pushed by taking carbs....by taking some noodles and white bread for dinner. Following are the results
BG level - 138 (exactly 1 hour after taking my first bite for dinner)
BG level - 178 (90 minutes after dinner)
