Hi doctor. My blood sugar level is 130 fasting.180 random. I am not taking any medicine yet. Try IG to control it by walk and diet. Wat dovu suggest?

Is it fatigue, eyes, ears, low blood sugar, or other? Last 3 days i slept 5 hrs each day. Lately when i walk i feel off-balance & kinda off with my concentration, b/p checked as normal, pulse bit high

Why does my blood sugar go up when i don't eat? Also after a 60 - 90 minute walk? It sounds counterintuitive. Goes up from 80 to 100. Not taking meds.

I exercise 3 times/week and my fasting blood sugar is 94-107. Why is it this high even when i don't eat carbs or sugar?

Low carb/low sugar diet for many years. Very fit, active& not overweight. 2 consecutive morning blood tests showed mildly elevated fasting glucose (101 & 102), but non-fasted glucose is lower somehow & A1C is great (4.4%). Concerning for prediabetes?
