MY BLOOD SUGAR RUNS 116 TO 121 FASTING, 157 AND UP 1 HOUR AFTER MEAL, 185 2 HOURS AFTER MEALS, AM I A DIABETIC?

it does sound as though you are a diabetic. normal fasting reading should be below 100. prediabetic is between 100 and 126, and full on diabetes is anything over 126. you should be tested by your doctor soon. please don't wait.

You are a textbook example of diabetes II. See an endocrinologist. Start medication (Watch out for severe side effects of some medicines even FDA approved ones: Avandia, Metformin) after some days you should know the exact dose. Meanwhile carry glucose pills or sweets in case you run out of steam (hypoglycemia). Start a diet. And exercise, excercise, excercise. If you are over 50 check your lower limbs daily and wear special shoes for diabetics. Come back in a month.

yes you do have,, please hit the hospital and start treatment. you can see the GP or a general doctor who should be able to control your Sugar levels.. the help of endocrinologist only if your diabetes is a brittle one (and the GP is unable to help you,) that need the care of a specialist.. treatment consists of diet modification, exercises and medication and treatment is life long as there is no cure

Probably. Don't rely on just a fasting plasma blood glucose test. If you fasting bg is normal ask for a random blood glucose test and eat a normal meal an hour before the test, or a big cookie. You you start limiting your carbohydrates to about 15 grams a meal until you sort things out. Also exercise right after eating.

Schedule an appointment with your family doctor and have a Hemoglobin A1C test done. It measures your average glucose over a 3 month period. It will let you know for sure. Target glucose should be fasting-under 120, and 2 hours after a meal-under 180. Your probably pre-diabetic, if anything. Before I was diagnosed the only symptom I had was that I drank A LOT of water and I peed ALL the time. Don't panic though, there's no need to run to the hospital for it. Good luck.

Yes, you are probably Type 2 diabetic. The 180 two hours after meals is very revealing. See your GP asap. Do you live with a diabetic? I am curious as to how you came up with the numbers.

You need to go to the hospital now. You have Diabetes.

Hi, IMO - Monistat and better micro-nutritional absorption in the gut should clear it up. Sounds like the skin reactions that I was having two to three years ago right after I poisoned my liver from too much and too many toxic micro-nutritional supplements for too long. My sleep was terrible back then when I was having severe pruritus Urticaria allergic reactions to foods antibiotic-meds skin-creams shower-water and my own sweat and who knows what other toxins, that would then also promote fungal infections and lymph gland swellings from my weakened immune system. After several months I eventually learned to make more costly organic nutritional choices, that then allowed my immune system and organs to rebuild and get stronger so I could again get a fairly good night’s sleep. IF YI - my own skin-pruritus-Urticaria issues have cost about $2,500 in the last three years to learn what I now know - which is that ALL skin diseases are a result of one's micro-nutrition and/or toxic ‘absorption’ from the air skin or gut and/or hygiene and/or parasites. Since petrolatum med steroid antibiotic pushing MDs were not very helpful, and it ‘almost’ took too long to learn what I now try to teach others, I now take a little time each week to help others understand that more costly nutrition helps to heal one’s body - NOT meds or supplements. Poor quality and/or low cost micro-nutrition that will weaken one's immune system, will cause/ allow/ promote diabetes types of fungal infections and itch rash diseases and almost any other disease, even if one might be very very young or a toddler or has never been ‘overweight’ in their life. With my own liver disease, within five minutes to four to six hours after being triggered my allergic reactions will begin and will last for a few minutes to a couple of hours and would cause small water blisters along with skin fevers and itches and then rashes and then long term scaling. When my malady was at its worst - I used to have allergic itches to my own sweat that I was burning off after showering or during exercise or when parts of my body got hot - during a time in my life when I used to have considerable toxins stored within my body fat, along with a severely weakened immune and filter systems - that for some reason would not eliminate these strong toxins into a stool. [See heat rashes at: <> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cholinergic_urticaria <>.] Monistat_7 and Desenex are moist-area anti-fungals and Monistat_Derm and Head_&_Shoulders are also anti-fungals, but you really need to do more internet research from the links I have given to better understand how difficult it is for meds alone to totally remedy serious skin maladies. After I began using too much of a thin petrolatum based skin cream I eventually checked into the ER one morning due to my ‘severely’ swollen lymph glands that made me think I might have contracted lymphoma. So only use med creams that are prescribed in a very-minimal way over a thin layer of wash water, so that one’s immune system and skin/ organs can repair and grow stronger ‘naturally’ without also poisoning one’s liver further. Since when I was an asthmatic teen and learned I would have severe reactions when I 'accidentally' inhaled or used 'any' deodorants, and could not eat cinnamon stuff without having an anaphylactic reaction - because cinnamon has some toxins that are strong enough to substitute for pesticides, my life long triggers have taught me to use hypo-allergenic non-perfumed soaps in a minimal way and to sometimes powder different portions of my body with cornstarch to help minimize yeast infections; especially whenever my micro-nutritional absorption within my gut has been less than was ‘necessary’ to ‘adequately’ repair my body’s immune system, organs, and skin on a daily basis. Lastly, even though I might not have answered your question as ‘specifically’ as you may have wanted, to help you with simple and concise information on ALL itch rash illnesses and for short and long term solutions to them ALL - the following link has considerable info within a ‘report’ I recently posted on Y_A: <> http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20091113104039AAbnGet <> The report is an accumulation of my own investigations into itch rash illnesses that are due to my own non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, even though I have a fairly low BMI of 26. I truly truly hope that what you might rapidly learn in the next few minutes will help you to decide on the correct choices that will remedy your painful malady in the future. My best to you and yours, AI – self taught nutritionIsT ><+>[(-:] PS - IF YI - a nutrition ranking I have learned about is posted at: <> http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20091101184933AA0kQ63 <>. FYI - The most nutritionally ‘dense’ foods are expensive leafy green vegetables.

Probably. but you might still be able to put it off if you see a doctor asap.
