A member asked:

My blood sugar level was 148 this morning. is that bad?

Perspective : If you don't have a diagnosis of diabetes, it is time to see your doctor right away. If you have it, a fasting sugar like this is considered high. Your diabetes doctor can work with you to bring the blood sugars down if they tend to be this elevated when fasting.
