A member asked:
My 39y/o husband has not been diagnosis with dm or any other condition. he decided to check his bs this morning and it came out 163 fasting.is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blood sugar levels: No, not normal. The normal blood glucose level for non-diabetics, should be between 70 and 100 (mg/dl). Blood sugar levels for those without diabetes and who are not fasting should be below 125 mg/dl. Either way he is too high. One blood sugar reading is not enough to diagnose diabetes, but you should follow up with his primary care doctor.
