Question 1

How high can blood sugar go 45 min after an average meal to stay in the normal range when my fasting blood sugar and long term blood sugar are low?

Accepted Answer

Any blood sugar at any time over 200 (two episodes) is diagnosed as Diabetes.  Normal level for fasting is under 100.  There is no standard, per se, for 45 minutes after an "average meal," but I would not like to see the number higher than the normals for a glucose tolerance test for sure.  Glucose tolerance test is "normal" under 140.

Question 2

My fasting blood sugar ranges from 90-100, my hba1c is 5.6, plz comment.

Accepted Answer

These values are in the normal range.  Keep up whatever you are doing with diet and exercise.

Question 3

What is now considered standard fasting blood sugar range?

Accepted Answer

If you are referring to glucometer readings then 60-120 again be careful with proximity of the upper and lower reference ranges.

Question 4

I am 190lbs on a regular exercise program , take my meds regularly and still see my fasting blood sugar range between 7.5 - 8. & 5ft 9" .

Accepted Answer

I assume the values you are quoting is your a1c levels as fasting glucose should be around 80-120.  You need to have someone re-evaluate your medications, as exercises and diet are critical but can not control your sugars completely.

Question 5

Am cortisol - 24, insulin - 8.9, fasting blood sugar - 98, glucogon - 33 (out of 40). some of these are out of range, is there a concern here?

Accepted Answer

The main concern I have is why are all these hormone levels being measured?  The cortisol is supposed to be high in the am.  Glucagon is supposed to be up when you're fasting.  Are you sedentary/overweight or have a family hx of diabetes? If so, that will make you Insulin resistant (but your glu is normal, you're not diabetic).  $$ worth of hormone levels are not usually needed to tell you this.

Question 6

Fasting blood sugar was 110 this morning. went to 88 half hour after juice for breakfast. back up to 116 an hour after lunch. is this a good range?

Accepted Answer

This represents an abnormally high glucose level bordering diabetes.  Two readings fasting >126 confirms diabetes.  See your doc about a test called hemoglobin a1c.  Watch the sugars and starches.
