Depends: If this was after meals, then it's normal. If fasting, then it's in the diabetes range. Normal bs is <100 fasting, <140 2 hrs after meals. You need a real blood test to diagnose diabetes. The glucometer is not accurate enough so it's used for monitoring only.

134 a Poor Indicator: 134 likely refers to mg/dL Like all numbers, it has no useful meaning without specifying the units of measurement. Assuming 134 mg/dL, these are units clinically only used for a momentary value & Is Not the issue with DM. Momentary glucose values are constantly changing, thus any momentary value is a poor indicator of cumulative behavior. Get HbA1c which reflects last 2-3 months Av.; Optimal 5.0%

Depends: on if it is fasting or non fasting and where it is taken in relation to a meal. If you are concerned about diabetes see your doctor. A hba1c blood test tells how your bs has run overall for several months and will tell if you are normal, pre-diabetic or diabetic.
