Question 1

a hour after eating steak, brocoli and corn, blood sugar level was 168, is that high or diabetic range? 24 years old

Accepted Answer

Ok: That is ok.  Check it two hours after meals instead.  It should be less than 140.  If it's between 140-199 two hours after meal, you could have pre-diabetes.

Question 2

is a blood sugar level of 104 two hours after eating considered low for a non diabetic?

Accepted Answer

No: That is normal .That would be high if fasted 8 hours.If greater than 200 after too hours that would be high.A low blood sugar would be around 60.

Question 3

is the blood sugar level of the non diabetic is increase after eating or that should be a fixed number.for example if a non diabetic eats and check blood sugar level after 2 hours sometimes it can comes to be 78, 90, 111,125,130 etc. 130 is not risk?

Accepted Answer

: These all sound pretty good.  The best way to follow DM is to measure HbA1c. It averages your sugar over 3 months-sort of.

Question 4

how many hours after eating should a diabetic check their sugar level?

Accepted Answer

Generally 2 hours: The standard time for checking your blood sugar after a meal is considered to be two hours (although if you are on insulin or trying to sort certain problems other times may be helpful as well).  A good rule of thumb is if well controlled the the 2 hour sugar should be back to within 40 mg/dL of the premeal blood sugars. If this case is not for you, 1 post meal checks are usual in gestational DM.

Question 5

my diabetic grandfather's blood sugar level two hours after eating is 470 mg/dl. he says he feels okay. does he need medical attention?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but . . .: Post-prandial (after meal) blood sugar should not be greater than 200mg/dL, even if you/he feel(s) nothing. While not an emergency, it's best that he see his Family Doc as soon as possible to discuss nutrition &amp; medication adjustment. Because he can always out eat any medication we prescribe, it's always best to start w/nutrition 1st. If sugars normally under control, then look 4 hidden infection

Question 6

i am dibetic. is a blood sugar reading of 180 after eating to high?

Accepted Answer

No: That is expected. Your blood sugar should go up after eating. Generally, it shouldn't go way above 200 after eating though. So, you're doing fine if that reading is consistent after meals.

Question 7

non diabetic. blood sugar went to 65 4 hrs after eating. always in the 70-90. what can cause this?

Accepted Answer

: I don't consider the cited level worrisome. It likely means your bodies' metabolism factors are delayed is bring it into the usual range. I doubt it has any significance.

Question 8

what is the healthy, normal blood sugar range for a non-diabetic adult 2 hours after eating a meal?

Accepted Answer

Blood Glucose: For someone without diabetes, a fasting (no food for eight hours) blood sugar on awakening should be under 100 mg/dl. Before-meal blood sugars should be  70–99 mg/dl, and postprandial (after meal) sugars taken 2 hours after meals should be less than 140 mg/dl.

Question 9

do i have diabetes if my sugar leval is 100 before eating and 165 after eating?

Accepted Answer

Not diagnostic: Hi. Those numbers are not diagnostic. Diagnosis requires fasting serum glucose, 2-hour post-challenge (75 g glucose) serum glucose, A1c, or random serum glucose (different diagnostic criteria for all 4 tests). Your finger stick glucoses may be suggestive, but are not diagnostic. Eat healthily and exercise regularly. Good luck!

Question 10

what do you suggest if my sugar leval 100 bifore eating and 165 after eating so what is my diabetes leval?

Accepted Answer

Need A1c: Hi. Individual sugars don't tell anything about your overall diabetes control, although the sugars you cite look pretty darn good. You need an A1c to assess overall control (and risk of complications), and preferably, many A1c's over time. Eat healthily, exercise regularly, take your diabetes medicine, control comorbid conditions (blood pressure, lipids), and don't smoke. Good luck!
