A member asked:
My granmom blood sugar is 215 is that normal or do she needs to be seen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Should be seen: 215 is higher than normal so she should be seen for blood work and better evaluation. Diagnosis of diabetes is not made on the glucometer but actual blood testings. It's also important to know how long this was after meals and whether or not her finger was clean when the fingerstick was done.
