65-104: But that's only if drawn out of a vein and run through a lab. Finger sticks measure different glucoses and tend to read lower, plus monitors are much less accurate than lab equipment.

I have type 2 pre-diabetes. My blood sugar tends to be high first thing in the morning but normal in the afternoon. What would cause this and does it matter if it returns to normal?
Not diabetic. Checked blood in morning. Ranges are 78-90. Is it normal for my blood sugar reading to not raise very much? Sometimes goes down right after a meal. Will it keep going down? Or balance.
