A member asked:
I am hearing that a healthy normal range of blood glucose in a healthy adult can be 70--120. some md's think 120 means high diabetes and insulin(?).

Yes: early Type 2 Diabetes or "Pre-Diabetes" is now a TREATABLE disorder and it is thought that EARLY treatment is beneficial but NOT INSULIN. An oral hypoglycemic (such as METFORMIN) is usually chosen! (along with dietary changes and weight loss if obese) Hope this helps! Dr Z

After an 8 hour fast, my blood test was normal. My urine test showed glucose, but my GP said it was insignificant. Could that mean I have diabetes?
