Yes: Good that you're proactive w/your health but don't get obsessive either. Best to check after fasting all night long. Small differences btwn fingerstick values & blood drawn results. While yours appear fine, best to discuss w/your family doc. Consider asking for A1c test to determine average sugar level over last 3 months. Eat healthy nutrition. Exercise regularly. Keep BMI less than 25. Don't smok
