I check my blood suger with glucometer during exercise in fasting reading i got 130 is it normal?

Fasting glucose: If your fasting glucose is 130, it is too high. If you are afraid that you are diabetic, have your physician order a hemoglobin 1ac and see what the result is. If it is in the diabetic range, consult that physician as to the steps you need to take to lower it. Good luck.
