Fasting glucose: Blood glucose, after an overnight fast should be below 100 mg/dl.
Blood sugar between 100-125 is pre-diabetes.

Blood sugar: When was that blood sugar measured? If that was fasting, then it is too high. A fasting glu of 126 or more is diabetes. If that sugar of 130 was after a meal, then it is hard to interpret. Get a fasting sugar, or an a1c. And while you're at it, maybe your doctor should check bp, cholesterol, and some other things.
